Doisac is a very war-torn land due to constant Jiralhanae civil warfare, typically between [[clan]]s. Despite their savagery, Jiralhanae proved intelligent enough to achieve [[Technological Achievement Tiers|spaceflight and space-faring status]]. However, their warlike nature inevitably led them into conflict, and eventually the various Jiralhanae [[master-pack]]s fell into a massive war known as the [[First Immolation]]. The planet became heavily damaged from the use of [[nuclear weapon]]ry and almost led to the extinction of the Jiralhanae.<ref name="waypoint"/> This war caused the collapse of Jiralhanae society; by the time the Covenant discovered them in [[2492]], the species had just rediscovered radio and rocketry. In their primitive state, they were quickly defeated and absorbed into the Covenant.<ref name="ch194">'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 194''</ref> | Doisac is a very war-torn land due to constant Jiralhanae civil warfare, typically between [[clan]]s.

*The [[Palace of the Hierarchs]] on ''[[High Charity]]'' had drapery that contained the continental tracery of Doisac within a circle, to make visiting Jiralhanae, such as [[Tartarus]], feel important.<ref>'''[[Halo: Broken Circle]]''', ''page 195''</ref> | |||
