Great timeline. I can't thank you enough. Sorry if I appeared to be questioning your theory specifically; that wasn't my intention. I'm just immensely curious about the subject and I thought you might now some of the all-too-many questions.I created a Timeline you should check it out, I went through every piece of NPC dialogue, Cutscene, Lodestone post, and Newspaper Article from the 3 papers: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...l=1#post916706
Lots of things happened that year, 1562 of the Sixth Astral Era.
Oh no it's all good. But yeah Ferne posted a while back that the Astral/Umbral Era lengths all just depend. I think the Fifth Umbral and Sixth Umbral were somewhat tied together, i.e. the Ice froze and then melted to cause Flooding. So the Fifth Astral was probably relatively short, just long enough for the Miqo'te tribes to come wandering in and settle. Then the founding of the Allagan Empire was around 5000 years ago at the start of the Third Astral Era, we can sorta 'divide' up the years since into the cycles. But yeah like Ferne said it all depends on the disaster and the ability to recover.
