User:Glflegolas/Timeline of Minecraftia

Here is a timeline of when approximate events occurred in Minecraftia, written by Glflegolas, to complement my story.

Years of the Trees

 * The world of Minecraftia is created, in a perfectly symmetrical fashion, c. 5000
 * The Aether is created, as a realm of eternal joy, c. 15000

First Age

 * 1: The sun first appears, and the first animals awake in Minecraftia and the Nether, and forests appear.
 * 100-125: Melkor raises great mountains in parts of Minecraftia.
 * 545-587: The War of Wrath. Melkor is defeated, chained, and cast into the Void. Minecraftia's climate is changed, so that it is no longer colder near the poles and warmer near the equator, but that climates can vary greatly, even over short distances. The Aether becomes a fiery and inhospitable realm, and is re-named the Nether.

Second Age

 * 1500: The Valar decide to send certain Men to Minecraftia, to colonize that realm.
 * 1550: The first wave of migrants arrives in Minecraftia from Middle-Eath, including inhabitants from all across the lands.
 * 1600: The One Ring is forged.
 * 3000: Wielding the One Ring, Sauron corrupts many spiders, turning them into the Spawn of Ungoliant. These spiders attack the colonists of Minecraftia, killing most; the remaining survivors retreated into underground strongholds, where they defended themselves.
 * 3441: The Ring is cut from Sauron's finger. A time of peace settles upon Minecraftia.
