Chronologies and Timelines
As I announced a long time ago at our old second NationStation OOC Thread, and more recently here on our Shoutbox, I have been making a chronology, or timeline, of the Human race, all of its sub-races and nations it is either a sizable portion of the population or controls the nation.
I also have thoughts of making a more global timeline once I have the timelines of more nations. All and everyone of them will be accepted though there is a very great preference for events that either affected the nation deeply or affected the our little galactic group in some relevant way. I also have no problem in making a timeline for your nation or nations. Feel free to contact me through this page or PMs.
While there are no examples, for now, a small guideline for when submitting events for a chronology:
- Mention the nation in any given entry related to it. (The Acruani expanded through Andromeda during that century. vs They expanded through Andromeda during that century.) I will have to add the name of the nation to the entry manually, while having such as a mistake in a single entry is acceptable. Repetition of the mistake will make me request for a re-submission with such problem fixed.
- Though several nations have their own calendar, that may have years with different length than our 'galactic' calendars. I can add such years to the national timelines of individual nations, but even then having the 'galactic' calendar date is recommended. The current year is 3174 for reference.
- For national timelines, you can give me hex color codes for the background and font. If none are given, I will assume I was given right to artistically think about it and give it some appropriate colors based on your nation itself.
To see a timetable, click on the link and open the file. I am currently looking at acceptable online ftp and http hosting to leave the files on so that all can access without needing to make a download. (There are also thoughts of finding a way to properly place the table at the wiki.)
Lastly, if you find any error or typo in any timetable, contact me! I'll fix it as soon as possible!

1 Although it is a little known fact, Acruani are a human-based race despite them being AIs. It is fully doable for both a human to be converted into an Acruani as was the case of Marcus of the Dothvalian Confederacy (and a few thousand humans from the said nation) as well as Acruani being given more physical bodies such as Archene Night.
