Notes and references[]
- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines places the events of Master & Apprentice in 40 BBY. Star Wars Propaganda: A History of Persuasive Art in the Galaxy mentions that chancellors were limited to two four-year terms, therefore Kaj had to have started her first term around 44 BBY. In 42 BBY, Kaj would have still been serving that term.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 The Star Wars Book dates Dooku's departure from the Jedi Order to 42 years before the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which is 42 BBY in the calendar system established by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. Dooku: Jedi Lost depicts the invasion of Serenno as the event that leads Dooku to depart the Order, therefore meaning it must have occurred in 42 BBY.
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious dates the assassination attempt on Padmé Amidala on Coruscant and the carbon-freezing of Han Solo—events that Star Wars: Timelines places in the years 22 BBY and 3 ABY of the 'ABY-BBY' dating system, respectively—to 7955.442.1 and 7980.421.2 in the Coruscant reckoning calendar, therefore establishing a difference of approximately 7,977 years between the two dating systems.
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 Star Wars Rebels: The Visual Guide places the founding of the Galactic Empire in the year 3258 LY of the Lothal Calendar. Star Wars: Timelines dates the proclamation of the New Order to 19 BBY, placing the zero point—the Battle of Yavin—of the 'ABY-BBY' dating system around 3277 LY and therefore establishing a difference of approximately 3,277 years between the two dating systems.
- ↑ 5.0 5.1 Per Star Wars: The Rebel Files, a calendar existed during the reign of the Galactic Empire the zero point of which was the Empire's founding. Star Wars: Timelines dates the proclamation of the New Order to the year 19 BBY of the 'ABY-BBY' dating system, therefore establishing a difference of approximately nineteen years between the two dating systems.
