Halopedia:Projects/Earth Mapping

The Earth Mapping Project aims to cross-reference both in-game and supplementary material to attempt to make sense of Earth's topographic and political status as of approximately the 26th-century.

This is in conjunction with work done on the Mombasa Mapping Project.
