+The Unified Earth Government traces its origins back to the early days of [[human colonies|human colonization]] of the [[Sol system]] in the late 21st century. It was conceived in [[2075]] to be under the auspices of the [[United Nations]], a representative, public-facing organization to facilitate extraterrestrial colonial commerce, exploration, and industry.<ref name="h4evg"/><ref name="universe"/>
-Following the [[Callisto Treaty]] in March [[2170]], the UEG was reformed into a full-fledged governing entity,<ref name="mythos"/> in response to the destructive [[Interplanetary War]] of the [[2160]]s. With numerous Earth governments fighting independent battles against [[Frieden]] and [[Koslovics|Koslovic]] forces, the [[United Nations]] became involved, eventually using the war to absorb most, if not all, terrestrial and extraterrestrial governments into itself; the goal was to form a united governing body to combat the terrorists and stabilize the planet and its off-world colonies.<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''', ''page 42''</ref> UN-aligned forces won the war in 2170 and the Unified Earth Government was formed, with its primary military, scientific, and exploratory force being the newly established [[United Nations Space Command]].<ref name="timeline">'''[[Xbox.com/Halo]]''', ''Timeline''</ref> In [[2204]], the Unified Earth Government gained full autonomy in an effort to maintain Earth's power over humanity's numerous interplanetary colonies.<ref name="universe"/>
+Conflicts between the [[Frieden]] movement, the [[Koslovics|vanguard]] of [[Vladmir Koslov]], and a coalition of individual UN nations in [[Rainforest Wars|South America]], on [[Mars Campaign|Mars]], and throughout the [[Jovian Moons Campaign|Jovian Moons]] encouraged the Secretariat of the [[United Nations]] to officially involve itself in the [[Interplanetary War]] with a mandate to stabilize the system and deter further aggression, establishing the United Nations Space Command in [[2163]]. <ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''', ''page 42''</ref>
+Persistent and widespread chaos of the decade past would result in the [[Callisto Treaty]] of [[2170]], spurring great reform in support of Earth nationalism. Originally little more than a ministerial function of the Secretariat, the UEG would begin to see radical change, slowly evolving from a ministry to its present state as a federal executive, legislative, and judicial body, eventually subordinating the United Nations itself. All existing supranational organizations, independent nation and city-states, and their respective territorial possessions and claims on Earth and on extraterrestrial bodies; and all independent planetary and satellite colonies throughout Sol would be subject to the UEG by [[2204]].<ref name="timeline">'''[[Xbox.com/Halo]]''', ''Timeline''</ref><ref name="mythos"/><ref name="universe"/>
