It all depends on the society that the Covenant live in (which includes every species in the Covenant).

Humans used tend to group together where resources are plentiful. A whole society worked around that one thing as we depended on the work supplied by persons wanting to use that resource (or yourself using that resourse).

Nowadays, thanks to technology like water pipes, gas pipes and electrical cabling people can live anywhere quite easily. For work they can commute there using their car, so distance between work (dependant on it) can increase. This is how suburbs appeared.

I'm not too sure if Covenant society would be like this. Can you imagine lots of little pods for families of Grunts to live in on a long road? Anyway, there's bound to be persecution of the lower races like Grunts and Jackals by higher ranked species so I very much doubt there would be a mix in race. It would most likely that overall, each species sticks to the Planet they came from. The Covenant only come together in war. Species soldiers would be shipped from their planet of origin to an army randez-vous point. From then, they would be mixed to give a more versitile army.

Well that's my theory anyway

Good theory but I wasn't saying that they lived on the same planet.

Well, the Grunts come from a planet with a rich Methane atmosphere (enough to sustain the Grunts).

Jackals, Hunters and Elites appear to breathe the same as us (shown by the lack or a respirator).

By guess is that Grunts definitely are from a different planet than the rest of the Covenant. As for the other species, I haven't a clue.

Could it be posible that the grunts lived underground, near volcanos were it is rich with methaine gas and small tunnels beehiving in any wich direction? As for the others, they would live in more of a cave-dwelling, right? No major bildings, just the great outdoors.

I believe they all came from different planets. The Covenant have obviously colonized a lot of planets, their sheer numbers show that. I think that if any species originated from the same planet, it would be jackals and elites. They are similar in blood color, and have the same type of leg joints. However, the rest of them are completely different, but it's just a speculation.

just think if we found the grunts on there planet before the covenant we could be friends. just a opinion. yes, the covenant do have families if you have it on a high difficulty the grunt sometimes says please i have wife and kid! This is after you smack them.

how the heck do we know if they have familys?

they all are from different planets. the elties and prophets (and maybe the brutes) started the covenant,they captured other races in war,nome of the races like eachother but the grunts,jackals and hunter are held with the elites. they all want thesame thing though.

to end the human race.

Let grunts Sleep!!!

I would hate to see the child that came from an elite and a grunt. gross
