First we have the Grunts (Unggoy).
The Grunts were first incorporated into the Covenant in 2142
An interesting event happened with the grunts. They initiated a rebellion in 2462 nearly getting there home world Balaho getting Glassed.
There are 6 types of grunts:
Heavy: Grunt Heavy's are used for driving small vehicles such as ghosts, Using Turrets and Carrying and using Fuel Rod Cannons.
Major: They are slightly better than than Minors. they will usually lead groups of minors into battle but have no other authority.
Minor: This is the lowest rank possible in the Covenant. They are equipped with average equipment.
Deacon: The Deacon rank is mostly for religious purposes.
Special Ops: The Spec Ops grunts are smarter and stronger than normal grunts. They are deployed with Spec Ops elites. They will usually be led by the grunt Ultra: This is the Highest Rank of grunt. They wear white/pearl colored armor. They are the commanders of the grunt army. They make as few mistakes as a Sangheili Major.

Now we have the Jackals (Kig-Yar). They and the the Grunts have a... Lets say 'bad' relationship. This bad relationship reached a boiling point in 2462 when the Kig-Yar tried to poison Infusions, narcotics that the grunts enjoyed. And this evolved to be the Unggoy Rebellion.
There are three types of Jackals:
The Ruutians: The majority of the covenant Jackal army is made up of these. They have served with The Covenant since the beginning of the human/covenant war.
The Ibie'shans: These variants have shorter and wider snouts and are used frequently.
The T'vaoan: These feathery Jackal types are more agile than there wimpy cousins. These guys can jump like the flood, And run up to 45 mph (that's faster than a Spartan!)

These are the Drones (Yanme'e)
These little buggers (as the UNSC calls them) actually have a ranking system:
Unmutuals: These Yanme'e suffer from personalty disorders and will brutishly kill other Yanme'e. They are sentenced to work as slaves for the Kig-Yar.
Minors: The Minor is the lowest rank. They Fly slower than Majors, Ultras, and Leaders.
Major: Major is the second highest rank in the Drone Military.
Ultra: The Ultras have blue lights and armor. This is how you tell they are Ultras.
Leaders: Leaders stay on the ground as foot units and wield Brute plasma rifles
Queen: This is the Leader of the Yanme'e.

These are The Lekgolo (I like to call them the Legos)
They are equipped with the Fuel Rod Assault Cannon.
They also have heavy armor that the Sangheili gave to them.
The Assault cannons can shoot bursts of smaller rounds or one larger more powerful rounds.

These are The San'Shyuum (The Prophets)
There are three main Prophets:
The Prophet of Truth
The Prophet of Mercy
The Prophet of Regret
(They all Die...)
The Prophets Join the Sangheili and worship the Forerunners as gods, but then find out in 2552 the humans are distant relatives of the Forerunner so they can't be gods.Then they wage war on the Humans.

These odd creatures are called the Huragok
These guys are used as combat engineers, medics, and suicide bombers.
They are very weak but can split their tentacles into smaller pieces to work with microscopic tech.
They can take apart components and put hem back together in a matter of seconds.
