Unified Earth Government

 

Ballast is a human Inner Colony world, governed by the Unified Earth Government.[1][2] Ballast was the homeworld of Spartan Frederic-104.[3] Vallejo is a city on the world, where the car manufacturing company Kabord was originally based out of.[4]

History

During the Human-Covenant War, the world was attacked by the Covenant. During the course of the battle, it is rumored that the UNSC Defense Force succeeded in defeating the Covenant, although it is possible that the rumor was created by the Office of Naval Intelligence to raise morale.[1] The colony was apparently still intact during the Battle for Earth, as evidenced by active transports from the colony to the Quito Space Tether.[5]

Trivia

On the Halo 3 multiplayer map Orbital, one of the incoming transports is from Ballast.
