Timeline
This page serves as a rough timeline of the events covered in this lexicon. Consider it non-canon. The articles here within are the "source of truth", not this timeline. That said, please help keep the timeline up-to-date, but be sure to site reference(s) that set(s) the date.
The notation "<5241" (for example) means "an unknown amount of time before 5241 s.y.v.p. ">1234" means some time after 1234 s.y.v.p., thus ">1234 <1367" means sometime within the range of 1234 to 1367.
The timeline is loosely divided into eras for ease of reference. They have no canonical meaning.
