Star Wars: an unofficial chronology, canon and Legends

The galaxy far, far away from the first Jedi to the Legacy era, dated in years before and after the Battle of Yavin (BBY and ABY). Each moment is tagged by its continuity (canon, Legends, both for the original six films, or non-canon for Visions) and by the medium that tells it (film, TV, novel, comic or video game), and colored by medium; eras are shown as spans. An unofficial fan chronology. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Lucasfilm or The Walt Disney Company; summaries are our own.
