The UNSC was formed by the [[United Nations]] when over-population on Earth started becoming a severe problem in the early 22nd century. Run by [[HIGHCOM]], the UNSC is Earth's premiere defense against the Covenant.

Originally designed to keep the peace between neighboring planets and star systems, when certain [[Insurrectionist|rebellious factions]] began to present a problem in the late 2490s, the UNSC was forced to police its colonies to keep privateers and [[Space piracy|pirates]] from raiding them. | The UNSC was formed by the [[United Nations]] when over-population on Earth started becoming a severe problem in the early 22nd century.
