An "official" SJ Timeline

While I've seen one or two SJ Timelines floating about the net,  they all
seemed to be based on homegrown campaigns.  Nothing wrong with that,  but
they didn't help me much, as I try to stay as close to "official" as I can.
So, I've compiled this timeline, including the important events of the
Forgotten Realms(including Kara-tur, Zakhara, and Maztica), Dragonlance,
and Greyhawk worlds.  The worlds intials preced each entry in brackets,
and the date of events in that world's primary calender are given in
parenthesis following the description. For SJ I felt using the Olven
Calender was appropriate (as the writer of the SJ netbook timelines felt)
because 1)it is tangible evidence of elven influence and 2) I felt it
appropriate considering Greyhawk's status as first AD&D game world.

I chose to ignore the differences caused by different year lengths,  mostly
because it was just too complicated.  I have come up with an explanation
which I'll post in a note on Wildspace calenders later.

Comments and additions welcome. For suggested additions,  please note if
the said addition is from a TSR published source and if an actual date is
given or if it must be inferred.  I don't have the 2nd SJ MC Appendix, it
may have dates I'm unaware of.

Notes on cross-world references:
Greyhawk/Realms:
The nexus here comes in 580 CY and 1360 DR.  In Dragon 185 "Magic in the
Evening" it is implied that the events in the FR novel "Parched Sea" occur
just prior to the GH module "Vecna Lives".

Dragonlance/Realms:
This nexus comes in 1361 DR and 358 AC.  Dragon 196 "Novel Ideas" dates the
SJ/FR crossover novel "Into the Void" to 1361.  In the first work of the SJ
series,  "Beyond the Moons" we're told its been five years since the War of
the Lance which ended in 353 AC.
