== | ==History== | ||
===Rise of humanity=== | |||
Interest for possible colonization in the Epsilon Eridani system originally focused on [[Tribute]] and Circumstance, though that would change to [[Reach]].{{Ref/Site|Id=universe|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/tribute|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Tribute}} Circumstance would be settled in [[2364]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |||
===Human-Covenant war=== | |||
By July 2552, Circumstance was a destination listed at the [[Manassas Spaceport]].<ref>''[[Halo: Reach]]'', [[Spaceport (Remember Reach)|Spaceport]]</ref> | |||
When the Epsilon Eridani system was invaded by the [[Covenant]] in the summer of [[2552]], most of the population centers on Circumstance were destroyed.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/fathom-station|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Fathom Station}} The planet likely survived at some point after the invasion.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=50}} | |||
==Government and society== | |||
Circumstance possessed a rich industrial depth, thriving population, famous interstellar courts, educational facilities, and theaters.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=42}} | |||
