[edit] Timeline
[edit] 2162
Armed conflict ripped through South America, as Koslovic, Frieden and UN forces clashed over ideological differences, sparking additional conflicts off-planet, such as the Argyre Planitia Campaign. This war brought a great deal of suffering to the people of Earth, and caused famine for a great deal of people.
[edit] 2170
In the post-war period, there were massive population surges, resulting in overpopulation. Coupled with the destruction and famine bred by the Rain Forest Wars, the economy threatened to destabilize.
A Soldier's Tale: Rainforest Wars was written about this event. This book is a favorite of CPO Franklin Mendez, and described as a "military classic" in Halo: Ghosts of Onyx. [2]
