The STAR WARS EXPANDED UNIVERSE TIMELINE

by Joe Bongiorno

This chronology follows the original canon of the Star Wars saga. EU-Compatible stories are included in the Complete Saga chronology, which takes a modified One Canon, Three Universes approach (the third one being Infinities). For timelines with strictly pre-2014 EU stories, go to the individual eras.

“After Star Wars was released, it became apparent that my story—however many films it took to tell—was only one of thousands that could be told about the characters who inhabit its galaxy. But these were not stories I was destined to tell. Instead they would spring from the imagination of other writers, inspired by the glimpse of a galaxy that Star Wars provided. Today it is an amazing, if unexpected, legacy of Star Wars that so many gifted writers are contributing new stories to the Saga.”

~George Lucas, foreword to the 1994 reprint of Splinter of the Mind's Eye
