Beyond

Beyond
Beyond was a planet inhabited by humans of UNSC and other factions as a mining center. It was one of the first outer colonies that the UNSC inhabited and used as a money maker rather than a residential planet. The first ones their named it Beyond because it was beyond inner reach and could be an independant area if ignored. A lot of Innies took up residence in Beyond because of this, and it was considered an independant planet as of 2530. In 2539, the planet was glassed by the Covenant, and this caused it to be a winter waste later on, adding to it's already cold, Hoth-like environment. As of 2625, the planet now has a summer witch lasts 1/10 of the year.

Politics
As stated previously, this planet was independant and nearly Innie, but it was also affiliated with the UNSC to a small extent. As of 2625, the planet is independant, as are it's residents and it has lost contacts with the UNSC.

Culture
The culture of Beyond was mainly like the culture of colonies like Meridian, incredibly Xenophobic and unaccepting of the UNSC and others. Ironically, the Spartan II known as West was born here.
