By [[2552]] A.D., Earth was the last remaining major human bastion; and fell under attack by the Covenant forces. The [[Human-Covenant War]] finally came to an end after a UNSC and [[Covenant separatists]] force [[Battle of the Citadel|eliminated]] the Covenant [[Prophet of Truth|leadership]] and [[Battle of Installation 00|destroyed the Flood]] threat.

The [[Human-Covenant War]] finally came to an end after a UNSC and [[Covenant separatists]] force [[Battle of the Citadel|eliminated]] the Covenant [[Prophet of Truth|leadership]] and [[Battle of Installation 00|destroyed the Flood]] threat.


By the time the war began, humanity, and thus the UNSC, had reached [[Technological Achievement Tiers|Tier 3]] of the [[Forerunner]] civilization rank system. Humanity's rank continued to rise due to the capture of Covenant technology and equipment, which was studied and adapted for human needs. The very best and cutting edge of UNSC equipment was supplied to the SPARTAN-II project. Human technology was innovative, rather than reverse-engineered from Forerunner technology. This mean humanity remained flexible in their technical expertise, despite being hundreds years behind the Covenant. One such example of ingenuity was the [[energy shielding]] technology adapted and improved for use on the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]].
