Humanity was once a highly advanced spacefaring civilization, spanning a number of star systems. They operated a number of ships, including the [[Prime cruiser]]. Many human starships fought at the [[Battle of Charum Hakkor]] during the [[Human-Forerunner wars]]. Following which, humanity was fragmented and de-evolved into a variety of subspecies and lost all space travel knowledge in the process. | Humanity was once a highly advanced spacefaring civilization, spanning a number of star systems.
