Rough notes. Timeline of major events needs to be worked out.
This is the timeline of the Unified Setting of /tg/. It is divided into periods based roughly on how long Events are to be added as they are agreed upon. Some events may be missing.

*1532: Ambitious [[Setting:Unified Setting/Gorgossa|Gorgossan]] warlord invades [[Setting:Unified Setting/Baetica|Baetica]], thinking them soft and weak. He is partially correct as the king and noble army are easily defeated, but Baetican clerks and peasantry step up and slow invasion to a crawl. Internal politics and threat of [[Setting:Unified Setting/Solaris#Vyntril|Vyntril]] joining the war force a Gorgossan withdrawal. Baetican clerks and peasants stay in power with tame nobility rubber-stamping their decisions.
===Recent History===
*1552: Achaen king dies without clear heir. Vyntril and Gorgossa both lay claim to the kingdom. War of [[Setting:Unified Setting/Solaris#Achaea|Achaen]] Succession triggers conflicts across Solaris.
*-200: Achaen king dies without clear heir. Vyntril and Gorgossa both lay claim to the kingdom. War of Achaen Succession triggers conflicts across what is now the Federated Kingdoms, eventually involving all the nations of Solaris.
*1573: Treaty of Federation ends [[Setting:Unified Setting/Solaris|Solaris]] conflicts. [[Setting:Unified Setting/Solaris#Solus|Solus]] emerges as the dominant power and forms the Federated Kingdoms of Solaris. Vyntril and Gorgossa forced to join at swordpoint. Other nations either allied with Solus or eager for conflict to end. A new age (for humans at least) of exploration, colonization and conquest begins.
*-180: Treaty of Federation ends Solaris conflicts. Solus emerges as the dominant power and forms the Federated Kingdoms of Solaris. Vyntril and Gorgossa forced to join at swordpoint. Other nations either allied with Solus or eager for conflict to end.
*1590 to 1610: Golden Age of Human Exploration. Economic boom caused by peace and increased trade channeled into overseas trade, exploration and colonization. Engelhafen freeport founded in Everoc.
*-160 to -140: Golden Age of Human Exploration. Economic boom caused by peace and increased trade channeled into overseas trade, exploration and colonization. Engelhafen freeport founded in Everoc. Lindwurm "discovered" but unclaimed after objections from other powers.
*1618: Humans "discover" Lindwurm, but do not claim it after objections from other powers.
*-100 to -90: General Rain rises to power and unites the sergal under her banner.
*1653: General Rain unites the [[Setting:Unified Setting/Sergal|Silvoran]] banner.
*- 90 to -85: Sergal Empire conquers everything in sight. Rest of world craps pants.
*1654: The [[Setting:Unified Setting/Sergal#The_West_Fofin_Slaughter|West Fofin Slaughter]] occurs.
*-70: General Rain vanishes after thirty years of rule. Sergal expansion ends.
*1670: General Rain vanishes after thirty years of rule. Sergal expansion ends.
 
*1718: [[Setting:Unified Setting/Solaris#Vyntril|Vyntril]] Revolution. A corrupt Oligarchy is replaced with a truer and more open form of democracy.
===Uncategorized events===
*1747: [[Setting:Unified Setting/Solaris#Osroene|Osroene]] achieves independence.
'''Other things that happened- Need to be placed in a time category'''
*1752: Current day
*We need some arbitrary year zero for fluff purposes. Referencing events as 40 or 400 years ago doesn't have the same zing as 1297 or 832. Ideally it should be an event big enough that all races would acknowledge it.
*Goblins rise to power. I'm thinking they come to power after the fall of the Draconians. Possibly at the same time at the elves. Did the elves create flying cities to escape goblin domination?
*Goblin civilization devastated by necromantic disaster. Homeland sinks beneath the waves in the Sea of Ghosts. Necrostorms unleashed. This is a good time to inundate the surrounding coasts, creating the Lizardfolk and Doobie swamps. A time of great cataclysm like this would also be a good time for the flying cities to crash and burn.
