Outskirts

The Outskirts is a region in the Orion Arm recognized by the Humans, Sangheili, and Unggoy. It is the area considered to be untouched by any of the known empires, though this is quickly becoming false. Many rebels of these factions, including some multi-racial groups, have began attempting to colonize this region starting in 2561. The supercorporation Tradesmen's Alliance had established mining operations on two dozen colonies by 2578, ranging from those not yet exporting material to the most productive mining colony in the human sphere.
