Timeline of DuracellEnergizer’s Star Wars Universe

7,500,000,000+ BBY

The Universe is created via the Big Bang.

The Star Wars galaxy is formed.

7,500,000,000 BBY

The Yavin System is formed.

2,000,000 BBY

Wookiees begin to evolve of Kashyyyk.

1,000,000+ BBY

Humans settle on Coruscant.

1,000,000 BBY

The Hutts evolve on Varl.

200,000 BBY

After a climactic battle, the near-human Taungs take over the planet Coruscant. In the battle, a volcano wipes out the major human city and ash covers the sky.

199,998 BBY

The sky over Coruscant is finally free of ash.

100,000 BBY

The Sith species, which will eventually be ruled by the Dark Jedi known as the Dark Lords of the Sith, begins to develop.

On Coruscant, Galactic City (later Republic City and then Imperial City) is built.

95,000 BBY

This is the last time the lower fifty levels of Coruscant see the sun.

36,500 BBY

Around this time, the energy field created by all living things, the Force, is "discovered" on the planet Tython.

28,300 BBY

Around this time, the future Sith ruler Adas is born.

28,000 BBY

The Sith warlord Adas becomes the first (and only) monarch of the entire Sith species (until the arrival of the Dark Jedi from the Second Great Schism) when he uses his military prowess to unite the various Sith nations on Korriban into one society.

27,500 BBY

Humans colonize Alderaan.

27,000 BBY

The first energy weapons, beam tubes, are created.

25,800 BBY

Around this time, Force-users on Tython who have learned to harness a positive energy (the light side) that they call "Ashla" engage in the Force Wars against those who would use the Force to attain personal power. In the wake of the Force Wars on Tython, the followers of the light side will form the monastic warrior society known as the Jedi Order. Its warriors, as they spread throughout the galaxy to aid other cultures, will become known as Jedi Knights.

25,100 BBY

According to some accounts, a heretofore unknown alien race, the original inventors of hyperdrive technology, enters the Corellian system and sells the hyperdrive technology to the Corellians.

25,000 BBY

The Old Republic is formed.

Basic becomes the galactic standard language.

Alderaan becomes an early member of the Old Republic.

Ancient Taung Shadow Warriors relocate from Coruscant to the planet Roon.

25,000-24,000 BBY

The Jedi begin receiving funds from the Republic Senate in return for their rather autonomous services.

24,500 BBY

A single Jedi, Xendor, falls to the dark side. He gathers like-minded Jedi, followers of the dark side of the Force (known in Tython lore as the "Bogan") and creates the Legions of Lettow. The Lettow legions wage war against the Jedi Order in a conflict that will come to be called the First Great Schism.

In the wake of the First Great Schism, those Jedi who delve into the dark side or otherwise defy the Jedi Council are persecuted for their beliefs. Instead, these "fallen" Jedi begin studying their darker arts in secret. This will last for approximately seventeen millennia until the outbreak of the Second Great Schism.

15,000 BBY

The Hutts take over Evocar and rename it Nal Hutta. This move takes place after their original homeworld, Varl, is devastated.

7,032 BBY

The Gungans on Naboo, after a fierce struggle for land with another race, are driven underwater, where they begin to create their legendary underwater habitats.

7,003 BBY

A group of fallen Jedi (Dark Jedi) declare themselves free of the control of the Jedi Council, breaking away from the Jedi Order. They will spend the next three years in hiding, studying the dark side. This event comes to be known as the Second Great Schism.

7,000 BBY

The ancient Taung Shadow Warriors who relocated from Coruscant to the planet Roon now relocate again to the planet Mandalore, which they name as such in honour of their first great leader, Mandalore the First. This culture will come to be known as the Mandalorian culture, and all future leaders will bear the title of "Mandalore" or "Lord Mandalore".

The group of Dark Jedi, who have been hiding their delving into the dark side and studying in secret since the Second Great Schism three years earlier, discover that the Force can be used to bend and manipulate life itself in twisted ways. This pioneers the science of dark side mutations. They finally dare to emerge en masse. This erupts into a conflict between the light side Jedi and the dark side Jedi that comes to be known as the Hundred-Year Darkness.

6,913 BBY

The first archaic lightsabers are created, one of which will come into the possession of the Dark Jedi Karness Muur.

6,900 BBY

The Hundred-Year Darkness ends with a climactic battle on Cobros, where the Dark Jedi are nearly all wiped out, along with most of the life on the planet. Those who survive are exiled from the Republic. Many of the Dark Jedi who were exiled after the Second Great Schism discover the Sith species. The exiles are accepted as gods and rulers by the primitive Sith. They come to rule the species as the "Dark Lords of the Sith", and create the vast Sith Empire far from the Republic. Among the dark side exiles that survived Corbos are Ajunta Pall (whom some believe may have been the first to earn the title of Dark Lord) and Karness Muur.

6,000 BBY

Around this time, the Sith Empire finally begins the cycle of infighting that has become the hallmark of Sith Orders. Having expanded as far as it can without venturing close enough to Old Republic space to be noticed and repelled, the Sith Empire stops expanding, and power struggles begin amongst the Sith Lords and their followers. This cycle will continue for one thousand years, as the Sith Lords drive the Sith Empire toward internal collapse.

5,689 BBY

The lightsaber replaces Force-augmented swords as the weapon of choice among the Jedi.

5,100 BBY

Marka Ragnos is declared Dark Lord of the Sith. He will come to force the other Sith to focus their anger and machinations on him instead of upon expansion, which he fears will only lead to the downfall of the Sith Empire.

5,032 BBY

On Naboo, the Ankura and Otolla Gungans unite.

As a symbol of their new unity, the Gungans build the city of Spearhead (later renamed Otoh Gunga) in Lake Paonga.

At about the same time that the Gungans unite, the civilization that forced them underwater dies out, leaving numerous ruins above and below the surface of Naboo.

5,020 BBY

Tensions between the Perdoni Coalition and Galactic Republic escalate to all-out war. The Coalition-Republic Crisis begins.

4,671 BBY

The Quadrumvirate, the ruling body of the Coalition, makes an offer to the Sith; in exchange for their services, they will grant the Sith citizenship in the Coalition, giving them new worlds to call their own. The Dark Lord Detori Raje accepts their proposal, officially siding with them against the Republic.

4,666 BBY

Three fourths of the Sith fleet is destroyed at the Battle of Nefeyi, nearly crippling the Sith war machine.

4,663 BBY

The Perdoni Coalition strikes back by obliterating their meager fleet and bombarding the Sith worlds. Most of the Sith, including their Dark Lord Raje, are exterminated in the massacre that will come to be known as the Great Sith Purge.

4,662-4,658 BBY

The few surviving Sith scatter throughout the Galaxy, setting up shop on a number of backwater planets.

4,470 BBY

Freedon Nadd, a Jedi apprentice of unequaled enthusiasm and dedication, approaches what he believes to be the end of his apprenticeship and promotion to Jedi Knight. But when the time comes, the Jedi Masters refuse to grant him the title. Stunned at this contradictory action, he seeks the advice of Master Matta Tremayne, who tells him "some things you must find in yourself". She won’t tell him what’s keeping him from Knighthood. Enraged, he murders Tremayne, steals a ship, and flies toward the worlds of the former Sith Empire.

4,400 BBY

Freedon Nadd, a Dark Jedi bearing Sith magic, goes to Yavin 4, where he battles the Massassi and forces them to remember their heritage of service under Naga Sadow.

4,250 BBY

A brief civil war between the Jedi occurs on Coruscant, bringing about the Third Great Schism. These Dark Jedi find refuge in the Vultar system, where they discover strange alien technology.

1,000 BBY

Jedi initiates begin using training lightsabers, low-powered variants of the real weapons, in their training exercises.

Most of the Sith are exterminated in the Battle of Ruusan.

Having escaped the extermination of the Sith on Ruusan, Darth Bane finds his way to the Dxun moon of Onderon, where he hopes to find ancient knowledge that will allow him to rebuild the Brotherhood of Darkness. It is there, in Freedon Nadd’s tomb, where he finds an ancient Sith holocron. Bane spends several days studying the holocron, and there formulates the Rule of Two, a rule which limits the possible number of Sith down to two - one master and one apprentice.

Darth Bane travels to Onderon, where he finds Zannah and makes her his apprentice.

In the wake of the Battle of Ruusan, Supreme Chancellor Tarsus Valorum initiates the Ruusan Reformations. This initiates a new era for the Republic, wherein the standing Republic Army is dismantled, power is transferred in many cases from the Chancellor to the Senate, and the Jedi Order becomes a branch of the Judicial Department and thus answerable to the Senate.

The Jedi initiate reformations of their own. Training must begin in early childhood, romantic and familial relationships are prohibited, and offworld Jedi councils are disbanded, centralizing Jedi leadership on Coruscant.

Six months after the Battle of Ruusan, the Republic pardons any non-Sith who had served in the Brotherhood of Darkness’ army.

With the new prohibitions against marriage, the Nabooan Jedi Lord Kayos dissolves the relationship with his wife Lady Zara. This move will lead to war between their two city-states, eventually bringing about the Time of Suffering.

990 BBY

His body weakening and Zannah as yet unwilling or unable to challenge him for his position, Darth Bane chooses to seek out the ancient holocron of Lord Andeddu in order to preserve his spirit in a new body, which will give him enough time for Zannah to make her move or allow him to train a new apprentice. Zannah discovers this and, believing Bane has abandoned the Rule of Two so that he can continue on indefinitely as the sole Sith Lord, leaves to continue the Sith Order on her own.

Zannah takes Hetton on as her apprentice.

990-980 BBY

To prepare herself for her inevitable confrontation with Darth Bane, Zannah masters Sith magic and begins experimenting with creating a lightsaber crystal capable of generating a blade that can cut through other lightsabers; her experiments will bear fruit with the blood-red penari crystal.

985 BBY

Darth Bane takes the assassin Huntress (the future Darth Cognus) on as his new apprentice.

980 BBY

Bane contacts Zannah, and the two with their apprentices meet up for a final confrontation on Ambria. In the resulting battle Hetton is killed and Zannah bests Bane when his lightsaber shorts out under hers and she uses her dark side powers against him. Bane unsuccessfully tries to transfer his spirit into her body, and is lost. Zannah then becomes Dark Lady of the Sith, taking the Huntress on as her new apprentice.

Zannah, having acquired several personality traits from Bane after his possession attempt, begins to call herself "Darth" Zannah. This will eventually lead to the tradition of using Darth as a Sith title until the time of Palpatine.

The bloodshine crystal - a much weaker form of the penari crystal - is created and becomes the standard lightsaber crystal used in Sith lightsabers.
