COVENANT

Is a Theocratic Hegemony made up of many alien species and alliances that maintain control over a large portion of the Orion Arm in the Milky way galaxy. The Covenant is a political, military, and religious affiliation. They waged a genocidal campaing against Humanity until they were formally defeated due to many factors - the most crucial of which was an internal conflict. While the Covenant's leadership was either lost during the flood infection of Hight charity or during the Battle of installation 00, the Covenant continues to exist even after the conclusion of the war.
