<p><a href="http://eq2.zam.com/wiki/Norrath_Timeline" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://eq2.zam.com/wiki/Norrath_Timeline</a></p><p>This is a timeline that has been floating around for a while now, but it's pretty severely neglected.  Because of the controversy in exact dates and difficulty in pulling together so much information, I think this has been untouched for a few good reasons. However, it's getting hard to keep track of things and we really should try to update it.</p><p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">New information should be underlined</span></p><p><span style="color: #00ff00;">Exact, set in stone dates and events should be green</span></p><p><span style="color: #ffff00;">Questionable, unsourced information should be yellow</span></p><p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Guessing / speculation should be RED, keep this to a minimum.</span></p><p>Post your sources for everything you can, don't post anything in green without a citation. If you have trouble with formatting, just post the information clearly and make sure we can interpret it and format it for you. Links for reference are a GOOD idea.</p>

<p>If I recall, Jindrack had, (or was in the process of constructing), a comprehensive timeline for Norrath that covered EQoA, EQ Live, and EQ2.  Supposedly it would have cleared up inconsistancies and would have, (I guess by retcon), have resolved the contradictions.</p><p>Alas, when he left the Norrathian Timeline Project went with him.</p>

<p>The Zam timeline doesn't have any refrences to the time split, and infact lists expansions that are not included as part of the EQ2 timeline. It also doesn't include any events discovered after the game went live. The whole thing could of been written a week after EQ2 went live 6 years ago.</p><p>Why not start with Irish's history that is stickied to the top of this thread? It is well written and includes only verified information with minimal speculation.</p>

<p>Fixed, this is an EQ2 timeline, not an EQ timeline. Removed irrelivent expansions.</p>
