Notes

The date of circa -1400 CY is equivalent to "around 2,000 years ago" for most sources published during D&D third edition. Exactly 2,000 years before 591 CY would be -1410 CY. However, most events circa this date are approximate.

Dates regarding Sulm are approximate. According to Polyhedron 157 p.22 (Dungeon #98), Sulm reached its zenith "two millennia ago" as of 593 CY, or -1408 CY. Living Greyhawk Journal #3 dates Sulm's existence to "a thousand years before the Twin Cataclysms" as of 591 CY, or -1422 CY. LGJ #4 notes that the dune stalkers arose about 2,000 years ago after the fall of Sulm. Dungeon #130 notes that Kyuss was still human 2,000 years ago in -1405 CY, and LGJ #3 notes that he left Sulm shortly before its destruction.
