==History==
===Great Schism===
Throughout the majority of the Covenant Civil war, more commonly known as the "Great Schism" (especially among the Covenant separatists), Covenant Separatists split away from the rest of the Covenant as they followed the Arbiter against the Covenant. As the battle raged, the High Prophet of Truth formally transferred command of the Covenant Navy to the Jiralhanae, a position once exclusively held by the Sangheili. The Covenant Separatists wiped out the primary Loyalist fleet at the Battle of Installation 00.
