As faster-than-light travel was still new and highly expensive, potential colonists were subjected to rigorous physical and mental testing to determine their suitability for the extrasolar colonization programs. As such, the colonists who formed the basis for the 210 first-wave colonies settled before [[2390]] formed humanity's elite; these worlds would later be known as the Inner Colonies.

The Inner Colonies' reliance on the Outer Colonies prompted the Unified Earth Government to maintain its hold over the Outer Colonies, but it inevitably began to lose its ability to do so as the Outer Colonies eventually surrounded the core worlds and far surpassed them in number.

The overbearing influence of the Earth government, enforced by the UNSC and, initially, the [[Colonial Military Authority]], led to a growing secessionist sentiment among Outer Colony citizens. The more radical elements of this movement took up arms against the UNSC, sparking a series of brushfire wars—collectively known as the Insurrection—in the late 2490s.{{Ref/Reuse|cole}} | ||

After failing to re-establish contact with Harvest, the [[Colonial Military Authority]] sent a scout ship, the {{CMAShip|Argo}}, to investigate. Contact with the Argo was subsequently lost after the ship arrived in the Harvest system, plunging humanity into a deadly war with an alien hegemony known as the [[Covenant]]. Harvest was [[orbital bombardment|bombarded from orbit]] in a process which would come to be known as [[glassing]], marking the beginning of a 28-year war with the Covenant. During the war, hundreds of human colonies were destroyed and billions of human civilians and military personnel were killed by the Covenant. The conflict would see the near-annihilation of the Outer Colonies by the mid-2530s, with the Covenant flooding into the Inner Colonies until they destroyed humanity's military stronghold of [[Reach]] in 2552. At that point, humanity only had a few dozen colonies remaining in total.<ref>''[[Halo Mythos]]'', p. 85</ref> The Inner Colonies narrowly avoided annihilation before the UNSC finally achieved victory against the Covenant in the same year, but communication and unity among Earth's surviving colonies had been utterly compromised amidst the galaxy-wide devastation. | ||

Various organizations exist to provide military defense for the colonies. The [[Colonial Military | Various organizations exist to provide military defense for the colonies. The [[Colonial Authority]] originally provided most security forces for outer colonies, and managed the [[CAA Marshals]] as "frontier sheriffs", and the [[Colonial Military Authority]] - a military force originally created for the colonies but eventually sidelined due to widespread corruption.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=54-55}} The CMA's role was taken over by the United Nations Space Command, which many colonists resent due to its perceived draconian influence. For colonies which merited them, the [[UNSC Army]] is the primary force tasked with the defence of colonies. A given Army detachment on a colony is managed by that colony's [[Army Component Command]] (ACC), which oversees the administrative side of Army operations on the planet. As colonies were destroyed during the war with the Covenant, ACCs were temporarily disestablished and replaced with [[sector]]-level working groups based on Reach and Earth. The Army additionally operates its own [[UNSC Army Reserve|reserve]] units and [[UNSC Army Security Forces|Army Security Forces]] to aid in the defence of colonies.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=61}} | ||
Many colonies are named after locations on Earth, while others receive more descriptive or abstract names. Some worlds are only known by their astronomical designation, with the name of the star the world orbits followed by a numeric designation most often rendered in Roman numerals. On some colony worlds such as [[New Jerusalem]], [[New Jerusalem (city)|the capital]] [[city]] shares its name with the planet, as it is common for a colony's initial population center to be considered synonymous with the colony itself.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/ | Some colonies maintain their own territorial defense forces, including [[Sedra]]'s [[Sedran Colonial Guard|Colonial Guard]], as well as the [[Gao Republic]]'s military. Anti-UNSC sentiments are not uncommon among these organizations, some of which—such as the [[Venezian militia]]—are openly secessionist. The UNSC also operated its own [[Colonial Militia]] program to train colonial citizens to deal with emergencies as well as local rebellion.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Contact Harvest|66}} | ||
