Thoradine Calendar: A Timeline
(A work in progress)
Counting from the unification of Arathor under its first King, Thoradin, the Thoradine Calendar begins in 2770 PC and, though falling out of favour with some of the newly-founded Seven Kingdoms, was used by the Church from its foundation. It eventually came to be standard throughout the Seven Kingdoms until the fall of Lordaeron.
A.D. stands for A'no Dominaeum, or 'In The Year of [Arathi] Rule'. Note that this comes from the Church, which used Humanised Thalassian for all official writings; the original nomenclature would have been in Old Arathi.
This timeline shall serve as an index for events pertaining directly to the Church of the Holy Light, beginning with the unification of Arathor under its first King in 2770 P.C. and continuing as time progresses in the World of Warcraft on Moon Guard server.
The Current year in the Thoradine Calendar is 2801 A.D. which is 31 L.C. in the common Lothorian Calendar.
