Timeline[]

Early life[]

c.−9,570,000,000 GST (−15.1 billion DT): Beginning of the Universe.
c.−9,000,000,000 GST (−14.2 billion DT): Various prehistoric species of blovion evolve as the first forms of life in the galaxy.
c.−5,000,000,000 GST (−7.9 billion DT): Rovese colonies, the first organic structures to provide growth limitations on early blovion, first emerge somewhere in the Delta Mitra star system.

First era/Antheonic era (c. −4.5 billion GST to −2 billion)[]

c.−4,500,000,000 GST (−7.11 billion DT): Antheons evolved and civilized on Planet Eon, of the Antheon System.
c.−4,000,000,000 GST (−6.318 billion DT): The Antheonic exodus. Antheons leave their home Planet Eon for the planet Buvios, presumably to avoid a cataclysm.
c.−3,999,500,000 GST (−6.317 billion DT): First attempt at interstellar travel through relative reversal. The Antheons arrive in the Ovar System.
c.−3,999,000,000 GST (−6.316 billion DT): First wave of colonization. Over 2,000 worlds are terraformed under relative reversal technology.
c.−3,998,500,000 GST (−6.315 billion DT): First evidence of early Latinians evolving in the Basilicus Prime Galaxy in Vaticania Alpha I System (coming soon).
c.−3,000,000,000 GST (−4.74 billion DT): Antheonic Rings are invented and construction is spread throughout the galaxy.

Silent era (c. −2 billion GST to 0 GST)[]

c.−2,000,000,000 GST (−3.16 billion DT): Antheonic Ring construction, terraformation, and exploration suddenly ceases. Antheons remain settled and stable.
c.−200,000,000 GST (−316 million DT): Antheons disappear, leaving behind the Antheonic Rings and Vessels of Gold and Silver.

Second era/Ancient era/Helic era (c. 0 GST to 17,000 GST)[]

Many systems created in this time are still used by major civilizations through the present. This was the first time Helics began referring to the galaxy as “Basilicus Prime”.
