User:Moydow/Timeline of Fódlan
From Fire Emblem Wiki, your source on Fire Emblem information. By fans, for fans.

The land of Fódlan and its surrounding territories occupy their own Fire Emblem series story universe, with no known ties to any other universe (aside from the existence of the Three Regalia and Hauteclere from Archanea, though it is not explained how these came to appear in Fódlan). Much of the history of Fódlan is recounted in documents stored in the library at Garreg Mach Monastery; it should however be noted that falsified versions of history were widely propagated by the Church of Seiros, so it is possible these documents are not completely accurate.
Fódlan uses an unnamed in-universe calendar whose epoch is the establishment of the Adrestian Empire, with the years counted relative to the empire's foundation in Imperial Year 1. The new year of this calendar begins in the fourth month, the Great Tree Moon.

| Sometime before -41 | • The dragon Sothis descends upon Fódlan from afar, adapting a humanlike form. • Sothis' descendants, the Children of the Goddess, are born from Sothis' blood. • Sothis and the Children of the Goddess share their knowledge and powers with humanity, and human civilisation flourishes. • As humans grow ever stronger, they eventually clash with Sothis and the Children of the Goddess. Humanity is almost wiped out in the ensuing battle, and their survivors are driven underground to Shambhala; their descendants eventually become known as those who slither in the dark. • Sothis creates new life to repopulate the now mostly vacant Fódlan. Sothis retires to the Holy Tomb to recuperate, and the Children of the Goddess base themselves in Zanado. • Sothis is killed by Nemesis, and her remains are taken by those who slither in the dark. Her bones are used to create the Sword of the Creator, her heart is used to create its Crest Stone, and her blood is taken by Nemesis, who obtains the Crest of Flames as a result. The Red Canyon Tragedy • Nemesis launches an attack on Zanado, killing almost all its citizens. As with Sothis, their remains are taken by those who slither in the dark to create weapons and Crest Stones, and their blood taken by the warriors who would become known as the 10 Elites. • The few surviving Children of the Goddess go into hiding across the world. |
| -41 | • A survivor of the Children of the Goddess appears in Enbarr under the name Seiros, seeking allies in her pursuit of revenge against Nemesis. • The deeds Seiros performs during this time become known as "miracles", and her followers later establish the Church of Seiros in her name. |

| 751 | Founding of the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus • With the assistance of the Church of Seiros, Loog secures Faerghus' independence from the Adrestian Empire, and is crowned its first king. • In return for their assistance, the Church of Seiros becomes the official religion of the new Kingdom, and are permitted to openly proselytise within Faerghus. |
