The most common ONI symbol, with the arrowhead design.

The ONI symbol is the primary logo used to identify the organization.

Description

Arrow design

The agency's insignia has many layers of meaning: superficially it is a stylized surveillance satellite, but it also represents a pyramid of knowledge with an all-seeing eye and an arrowhead directed to the heavens.[1] Above the center circle reads "UNSC" and at the bottom, in between the edges of the outer circle reads "Office of Naval Intelligence".

The colors of the logo can be inverted on dark surfaces.[2]

UNSC derived

The UNSC derived variant.

Another symbol, based on the UNSC's is also occasionally used. Featuring the bird with the globe, the main differences include the globe containing the "all-seeing eye" with triangles and stars surrounding it and the ribbon at the bottom containing the text "Office of Naval Intelligence" in it.[3]

A city is a type of settlement that sapient species create.

Types

Human

Human cities often have transit systems featuring Maglev trains.[7][8][9] Quite a few cities also prominently hosted Space elevators.[10][11][8]

Human cities are sometimes arcologies. Several examples of this include the Castra Arcology[12] and the Haven arcology.[13][14]

Kurt Ambrose detailing the Battle of Agincourt.

In 1415, the Battle of Agincourt took place.[20] In 1759, the Battle of Minden took place. This battle became the namesake for a UNSC starship.[21]

In the 18th-century, the conical bullet was developed[22] and the piezoelectric effect was discovered.[23]

Over the course of the 18th and 19th-centuries, the colonies of Britain diverged socially and economically resulting in a schism. In one case, a war.[24]

World War II started in 1939.[25] John Forge's family had members fight in World War II.[26] During the war, the British cracked a German encryption scheme.[27] The war came to a close with the first usage of human Nuclear weapons at Nagasaki and Hirshima.[28] Chief Petty Officer McRobb compared the 26th-century Fall of Reach to the attack on Pearl Harbor.[29]

UN era

In the 22nd-century, the Houses of Parliament were destroyed in an act of domestic terrorism.[35]

Status as of 26th-century
