The Yanme'e joined the Covenant in the year 1112. The Yanme'e fought for the Covenant Loyalists during the Covenant Civil War in 2552. The Yanme'e were one of the newest races to join the Covenant, and are respected by the other Covenant species for their natural intelligence, obedience, and technological skill the latter skills set has brought them into an often violent rivalry with the Huragok, as seen in Halo: Contact Harvest. Because of this, the Yanme'e can be extremely dogmatic and hive minded something that may have made for an easy conversion into the Covenant hierarchy. The Yanme'e are an eusocial species, meaning their society usually consists of a single reproductive queen, reproductive males and non-reproductive female workers and/or soldiers. After the Great Schism began, almost all of the Yanme'e took the side of the Covenant Loyalists. In jealousy, Yanme'e have even killed an Engineer named Lighter Than Some which was assigned all the drones' tasks aboard the Covenant vessel Rapid Conversion. Yanme'e are often used as mechanic crews on ships when Huragok are not available, though they aren't as effective as the Engineers. The Yanme'e's exact position in the Covenant Hierarchy is relatively unknown, although it is reasonable to speculate that they are higher in rank than Unggoy and Kig-Yar, but lower in rank than Sangheili and Jiralhanae. The Yanme'e do not interact with the other species except to trade and serve in a military capacity. It seems, like the other Covenant species, that Yanme'e share a ranking system from the colored plating of their exoskeletal armor. Yanme'e typically mount small antigravity devices on their exoskeleton to assist them in flight. The Yanme'e are human sized, insectoid creatures that are covered in a natural chitinous exoskeleton that affords them limited armor protection against modern weaponry. 1.2 Social behavior and caste structure.
