Ephyra (Earth-2130)

Ephyra was the capital of the nation of Tyrus, on Sera, and the capital of the Coalition of Ordered Governments ever since before the Pendulum Wars. Built around the Jacinto Plateau, the city was attacked by the Vorcha during the First Contact War, falling to the Covenant decades later with the Battle for Sera, with much of it falling in control of the hegemony. Few inhabitants, known as the Stranded, still lived on the city, until the Lightmass Offensive, where the Fleet of Retribution had to glass the city to stop a global necromorph infection.

History
During the height of the Amarr Empire through the Silver Era, roughly in 3145 BED, Ephyra was only a small village on what would become Tyrus.

The House of Sovereigns on Ephyra served as the main headquarters of the Coalition High Command during the Pendulum Wars. Operation Leveler, among many others, were planned in this location, which resulted in most of the Union of Independent Republics and Koslovics' nations joining the COG.
