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. Over the course of the [[Battle of Earth]], the [[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 name="pointprize">''[[McFarlane Toys/Halo Point Prizes]]'', Campaign Master Chief</ref>
