Time periods

The Gwilymverse time is split up into different eras/ages. These eras are mainly from The Continent's timeline but some of the more recent ones are from the wider Gwilym Galaxy.

The 1st era began in roughly 12,500bce and ended in 8000bce with the introduction of agriculture into The Continent.

The 2nd era lasted from 8000bce to 4700bce. This period of time saw people create the first large scale settlements and kingdoms.

The 3rd era started in 4700bce (which is when the Emoji Region began) and ended in 900bce (when the Emoji Region collapsed).

The 4th era began in 900bce and ended in 200bce. Nothing much happened in this period apart from a couple of wars.

The 5th era began in 200bce and ended in 357. This was the rise and fall of the Mezagropic Empire, a large empire near the centre of the Continent.

The 6th era began in 357 and ended in 1054. This period saw the Dark Ages of the Continent and ended with the rise of the Kotralla Empire.

The 7th era began in 1054 and ended in 1219. This period saw the rise of the Kotralla Empire to it's largest extent and ended when Edward I began the Villager Empire.

The 8th era began in 1219 and ended in 1614. This period saw the Villager Empire expand. Also, the Villager leaders at this time were kings until in 1614 when Ferdinand I decided to call himself emperor, and that title has sort of stuck.

The 9th era began in 1614 and ended in 1918 which saw the unification of the main area of the Continent.

The 10th era began in 1918 and ended in 1963 with the Villager Empire turning into the Villager Republic of the Comintern.

The 11th era began in 1963 and ended in 1994 with the collapse of the Villager Republic of the Comintern and the creation of the Villager Region.

The 12th era began in 1994 and ended in 2014. This era was relatively peaceful and ended when the Villager Region declared war on the Potato Region. The independent corporate republic of the Goldeneye region was found in 2006, drawing land from other powers.

The 13th era began in 2014 and ended in 2020. This was the shortest out of all the eras lasting only 6 years.

The 14th era began in 2020 and is currently ongoing. It began when the Jams first entered the Gwilym Galaxy on the 3rd of March 2020.
