The Ederian calendar, named after Aeldric high priest Edery Veduvi, has been adopted by most countries in the modern era after its introduction in 506 EM. It is used as the standard on this website for ease of use.
The year is divided into four seasons beginning with spring in the southern hemisphere and fall in the northern. The calendar uses months and day names transferred from Kedeanic calendars to ease the transition, though not all of the names match up and different regions used different names in the first place. Some names have unknown origins and are suspected to come from religions absorbed long ago.
| ERA | START | END | DURATION |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dragons | c. 5600 BM | c. 1600 BM | 4000 yrs |
| War | c. 1600 BM | 632 BM | 968 yrs |
| Enlightenment | 632 BM | 103 BM | 529 yrs |
| Aeldreans | 103 BM | 1 EM | 102 yrs |
| Magic | 1 EM | N/A | 2600 yrs |
Years are 372 days long with a leap day added after the final day of the year every 100 years. The Ederian calendar uses BM (Before Magic) and EM (Era of Magic) to mark dates.
Dates may be referred to by their era in stories set earlier in the timeline. All eras can be referred to by their acronym (Era of Dragons to ED, Era of War to EW, etc.) and are placed before the number, e.g., EE 200, unless using Ederian standard, in which case EM and BM are always placed after.
