This is a timeline of galactic history recording the galaxys more important events. All dates are given according to the Galactic Standard Calendar. Timeline of galactic history Pre-Republic era ◾c. 13,000,000,000 BBY ◾The galaxy is formed.[1] ◾c. 5,000,000,000 BBY ◾Life emerges on Goroth Prime.[2] ◾c. 10,000,000 BBY ◾The planet Esseles undergoes a period of volcanic activity.[3] ◾c. 3,000,000 BBY ◾The planet Vinsoth is struck by an asteroid that wipes out most life on the planet. The survivors eventually evolve into the Chevin species.[4] ◾c. 2,000,000 BBY ◾The Wookiee species begins evolving on the planet Kashyyyk, becoming a species of tree-climbers.[4] ◾c. 1,000,000 BBY ◾An ancient aquatic civilization thrives on the planet Jerrilek, but eventually goes extinct in the following millennia.[5] ◾The semi-intelligent ancestors to the Gorothites emerge on Goroth Prime.[2] ◾c. 600,000 BBY ◾By this point, the cephalopod-crustacean hybrids known as ibliton have evolved on Randorn 2, leaving fossil records that are later analyzed by the Tyberious Institute of Xenobiology hundreds of thousands of years later.[6] ◾c. 200,000 BBY ◾The Zhell, the early ancestors of the Human species, battles the Taung species for control of their mutual homeworld Notron. Despite a loss at the city of Zhell that inspires the epic poem Dha Werda Verda, the Battalions of Zhell succeed in driving the Taung offworld.[7] ◾c. 100,000 BBY ◾Roughly around this time, the Celestials accomplish a number of feats:[1] the construction of Centerpoint Station using the Killiks,[8] the subsequent construction of the Corellian system using Centerpoint, the Vultar system and its Cosmic Turbine, the Hapes Cluster, and the Kathol Rift.[1] The Maw black hole cluster was also constructed with Centerpoint during the Celestials era of power to contain the Force entity known as Abeloth.[8] ◾The Columi species achieves interstellar spaceflight and surveys the primitive people of Duro and Notron, known by that point as Coruscant. However, they are disappointed by the developing Human and Duros civilizations and return to their homeworld of Columus in isolation.[9] ◾Around this time, the Sharu expand out from the Rafa system and the Centrality, planting their indestructible pyramids on planets such as Aargau. However, the Sharu bury their cities and revert to a primitive state in an attempt to avoid the attention of the Celestials.[1] ◾The winged thrantcills are first recorded flying south for winter on Coruscant.[10] ◾The Muurshantre Extinction occurs, destroying the Taurannik Codex and scattering its remains.[11] ◾c. 90,000 BBY ◾The metropolis eventually known as Galactic City has grown to the point where new levels are built atop old ones, beginning the trend of upward building that continues for thousands of years.[1] ◾57,000 BBY ◾Humanoid colonists arrive on the planet Utapau.[12] ◾c. 53,600 BBY ◾The Quake, a series of intense groundquakes that last for centuries, begins on the planet Quesh.[13] ◾c. 53,300 BBY ◾The Quake comes to an end as Quesh becomes geologically stable.[13] ◾36,453 BBY ◾By this time, the few Kwa who remain on the Deep Core world of Tython have died out, and the Kwa as a whole have retreated to their homeworld of Dathomir in fear of the Rakata. The Kwa taught the Rakata how to use the Force, but conflict ensued when the Rakata tried to take the Kwas Infinity Gate technology.[14] ◾The Tho Yor—eight great pyramid starships scattered across the galaxy—activate, calling Force-sensitives to them. The pilgrims board the Tho Yor, which proceed to visit numerous worlds and acquire Force-sensitives of many species before traveling to the Deep Core world of Tython.[15] ◾The arrival of the Tho Yor at the ninth and largest Tho Yor is heralded by an enormous Force Storm, and the Tho Yor scatter their passengers across Tython. The Tythans soon form the Jedaii Order, a group of Force-users who strive for balance between the light and dark sides of the Force which they know as Ashla and Bogan.[15] For more visit: starwars.wikia/wiki/History_of_The_Galaxy
