==Battle of Charum Hakkor and humanity's collapse==

Although humanity was successful in its early conquest of Forerunner worlds, they were forced to deploy the majority of their military against the Flood. By the time the Flood had been defeated, the human military had been exhausted. Even the capital of Charum Hakkor had been cut off from the rest of the Empire by Didact's naval fleets. On Charum Hakkor, humanity had incorporated precursor technology and constructed formidable fortifications capable of standing out against even the strongest fleets. Among them were unbending filaments that link their orbital platforms defenses similar in concepts to the [[Orbital Defense Platform]] on [[Earth]] and [[Reach]]. Despite having the combined Forerunner military at his disposal, it took the Didact great efforts to defeat the human resistance and capture the capital. Among the casualties were all of the Didact's children. Although cutoff and unable to receive reinforcements from the San’Shyuum, the humans held off continuous attacks for fifty years. When the planet finally fell, a significant number of humans and San’Shyuum committed suicide rather than being taken prisoner. Although humanity was completely and utterly, the tragedies of the war convinced the Didact to oppose and forestall the construction of the Halo arrays seeing it would violate the Mantle as the destruction of humanity proved similarly, a task that he succeeded for thousands of years.
