Lusitania Campaign

The Lusitania Campaign was a major late-war campaign of the Human-Covenant War that lasted from January 2550 until the end of the war in December 2552. An Inner Colony world known for its immense size, massive population, and unequalled loyalty to the United Nations Space Command, Lusitania resisted Covenant attempts at conquest for thirty-six months. Known variously as the Great Siege of Lusitania, the Defense of Lusitania, and the Defiance of Lusitania, the defenders included the armed forces of the UNSC, the Lusitania colonial militia, and volunteers from the millions of refugees.
