this is a wild guess and I don't know if this has been posted before there are two theories in here

Is it a coincedence that all the covanent races magically found each other but humans are all alone with no other intelligent races to support us

What if humans used to be in the same part of the universe as the covanent before the covanent had developed or anything and as the Humans advanced they left artifacts across the universe

Say some great catastrophic event accured that wiped most of the humans out and they are left on earth or they somehow end up on earth

now when the covanent start to develop their empire they find artifact that lead to the Humans. And the covanent believe that because they were so technologically advanced before them they see them as some kind of gods

Now the covanent see humans as an affront to the gods. Mabey because there is evidence that the forerunners had some rivalry or battle with another race and they see humanity as that race

this can either meen that humanity once battled the forerunners or humans are the forerunners and the race they want to destroy is the flood or some other race
and what did 343 GS meen by "all your lost history"

The covenant thinks that the forerunners are not humans. The reason why is because the humans attacked the covenant first because the humans ran into them and thought they were invading earth or one of their colonies.

Yeah, the Covies destroyed the the UNSC outer colony of Harvest, it took months for the UNSC to even get a scout there, then even more months to get three warships there. (was it two destroyers and a cruiser?). Only one ship made it back, so i'd say that the Covies are the agressive ones. That was the first ever contact with sentient aliens. Too bad the Covies were on a holy war to eliminate us .

I mean, lets assume that theres an even spread of sentient aliens in the Galaxy; Humans, Elites, Jackals, Grunts, Engineers, Prophets, Brutes. Us Humans havent found any, the Covies found us. I think that the Covie Empire is at the very least 6 times bigger than the Human one ever was.

But, judging by the size of the Covenant Fleet and Armies, it could be 20 times bigger than our quaint little kingdom!

either way, were dooommmmeedddd!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait, do i say WAS, because i played/read the books/game, or IS, because i am reading/playing, or WILL, beacause it happens in the future...
