This timeline was added to the official site on August 14th, 2023.


 * 2050-Humans first arrive on Mars. By 2100, humans are living in space.
 * 2156-Humans arrive in Alpha Centauri.
 * 2159-The United Colonies are established.
 * 2160-New Atlantis is founded and becomes the official capital city of the United Colonies in 2161.
 * 2167-Cheyenne is settled by Solomon Coe, who founds its first settlement, Akila City.
 * 2188-Coe invites Volii to join Cheyenne in a new alliance - the Freestar Collective. The Freestar Collective is officially formed in 2189.
 * 2194-The United Colonies positions the star station called the Clinic in orbit around Deepala in the Narion system. The unaffiliated peoples of the Narion system see this as a UC attempt to expand their borders and demand the UC remove the Clinic. When the UC refuses, the people of Narion vote to join the Freestar Collective, who mobilize to protect the system in 2195.
 * 2196-In response to Freestar mobilization, the UC moves a fleet into the Narion system and Freestar responds in kind. The Narion War beings.
 * 2216-The Narion War drags on as public sentiment sours. Finally, the Treaty of Narion is signed by the UC and Freestar Collective in 2216, ending the conflict. The term "Settled Systems" is formalized in the treaty.
 * 2221-The Freestar Rangers are founded as an elite protective and investigative force dedicated to serving all citizens of the Freestar Collective.
 * 2275-Constellation is formed by Sebastian Banks. Original members include Chloe Bao, accomplished physicist; Aja Mamasa, the youngest member and Sebastian's protége; Darius Andris, botanist and specialist in xeno-flora; Beradette Laurent, wealthy heiress and adventurer; Everado Gil, former smuggler; and Kadri Toma, biologist and physician. The Lodge is built in New Atlantis to serve the needs and people of Constellation for generations to come.
 * 2305-Barrett joins Constellation.
 * 2307-The Freestar Collective begins farming on the planet of Vesta in the Lunara system. By 2308 the United Colonies claims that by establishing a colony in a fourth star system, the Freestar Collective has violated the Treaty of Narion. Diplomatic talks break down and the UC lays siege to Vesta, kill anyone who stayed behind (or was brought in) to defend it. The Colony Wars officially begins.
 * 2310-Constellation comes into possession of their first Artifact and tucks it away in the Constellation archives.
 * 2311- After several years of conflict, the Colony War effectively comes to an end with the Battle of Cheyenne as a flotilla of civilian and military Freestar Collective ships takes down the major ships of the UC Navy using hit-and-run tactics.
 * 2315-The UC Vanguard is founded as part of a UC response to the Freestar Collective's use of civilian ships during the Colony War. The Vanguard is the UC's own civilian navy, relying on civilians using their own ships, who pledged to protect the United Colonies and its interests. The ultimate reward for this service: citizenship in the United Colonies.
