I wouldn't be extremely angry if Earth got destroyed at the end of Halo 2 . . . as long as we take a bunch of Covies down with us.

The Halo story has many parallels to the Greek-Persian war. The Spartans holding off overwhelming Persian troops at Thermopile could be interpreted as the Fall of Reach. While afterward the Persian's march across Greece and eventual destruction of Athens could be seen as the destruction of Earth.

Another thing is that the victory by Greece in a giant naval battle could be seen as the end of the Human Covenant war. Interesting...

But that's just a theory.

The only thing I don't like about the parallels to the Spartans of Ancient Greece is that they were defeated (or if not defeated severely damaged) in the Peloponesian (mispelled, I know) War because they fought with the same tactics in every battle. They were defeated by the Athenians at a battle (which I can't remember the name to right know) in central Greece. They returned to the exact same location and fought the Athenians again using the EXACT SAME TACTICS. I really hope that Bungie doesn't make the Spartan II's exactly like their predecessors.
