When the [[Covenant]] was established, the empire initially used Sunaion as an operating base while they explored and worshiped the Guardian. Despite the Covenant's efforts, little could be done to explore the construct nor could they determine its true purpose. During most of the Covenant's rule on Sanghelios, Sunaion remained largely empty, even during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. After the Covenant War and the empire's fall, Sunaion remained largely [[neutral]] in the resulting [[Blooding Years|civil war]] that engulfed much of Sanghelios.<ref name="universe"/> | When the [[Covenant]] was established, the empire initially used Sunaion as an operating base while they explored and worshiped the Guardian.

After the death of Jul' Mdama, [[Jul' Mdama's Covenant faction|the Covenant]] attacked Sanghelios, took control of Sunaion and began formulating plans to invade Vadam. The Arbiter learned of the Covenant's intents and quickly established a forward operating base in the ruins of Nuusra, where the Swords of Sanghelios prepared to attack Sunaion.<ref name="universe"/> Soon, an [[Battle of Sunaion|engagement]] between the joint forces of the Swords of Sanghelios, the [[United Nations Space Command]] and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant.
