The '''East African Protectorate''' is an [[Africa]]n union.<ref>'''Halo 2''', multiplayer map, ''[[Zanzibar]]''</ref> It is most likely a union of [[National government|nations]] much like the [[Wikipedia:African Union|African Union]] or the [[United Nations]] in the 21st century. It makes up a large part of East Africa, including, but not limited to the nations of [[Kenya]] and [[Tanzania]]. Not much has been explained about the East African Protectorate other than because of the location of the [[Mombasa Tether]] in its city of [[New Mombasa]] it is a powerful entity with great wealth. | |||
[[ | ==History== | ||
Sometime in the 25th century, the East African Protectorate tried a number of high capital projects like [[Wind Power Station 7]] based on [[Zanzibar Island]] in an attempt of re-nationalization.<ref>'''Halo 3''', multiplayer map ''[[Last Resort]]''</ref> The [[Global Water Campaign]] also had major facilities in the EAP; namely, the [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]] which were created in the 24th century to distribute melt [[water]] from [[Mount Kilimanjaro]] across the African continent.<ref>'''Halo 3''', multiplayer map ''[[Ghost Town]]''</ref> | |||
During the final months of the [[Human-Covenant War]] in [[2552]], the East African Protectorate became the site to key battles which determined the outcome of the war, including the [[Battle of Mombasa]] and the [[Battle of Voi]]. Over the course of the [[Battle of Earth]], the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] concentrated most of their forces in East Africa as they excavated long-buried [[Forerunner]] [[the Portal|Portal]] structure, invading and occupying a large portion of the surrounding area in the process. | |||
Following the end of the war, the member states of the EAP donated [[gold]] ore for a statue of [[John-117]] to be placed in the [[United Nations Space Command Memorial Park]] in [[New Mombasa]] as part of [[Project Rebirth]].<ref>'''[[McFarlane Toys/Halo Point Prizes]]''', ''Campaign Master Chief''</ref> | |||
