Meridian is a human Outer Colony and the seventh natural satellite of the gas giant Hestia V in the Hestia system. Despite being located on the edges of human space, Meridian was a vibrant and thriving colony with a robust economy and an impressive population; mining and military production for the UNSC were known industries on the colony. Once a green world, the moon held a temperate climate and fertile land. The Covenant eventually attacked the world in 2548 and, after a long battle that lasted for three years, Meridian was ultimately glassed by the Covenant in 2551. Following the Human-Covenant War, Meridian was resettled by the Liang-Dortmund Corporation. Despite being a colony of the UEG, Meridian became an independent world following the Covenant War. | Meridian is a human Outer Colony and the seventh natural satellite of the gas giant Hestia V in the Hestia system.

San'Shyuum, also known as Prophets by many individuals, are a sapient species native to Janjur Qom. Prior to the Great Schism in 2552, the San'Shyuum formerly served as the leadership caste of the Covenant. At that time, the San'Shyuum had exerted complete control over the Covenant's religious and political affairs. Since the fall of High Charity, the San'Shyuum population has greatly diminished and the species is believed to be near-extinct. However, evidence of a fleet carrying thousands of San'Shyuum emerged in 2553. | |||
