Events
In this year[edit timeline]
- The Touv Calendar begins. Touv attribute its creation to the god Katay. -1408 CY is equivalent to 1 TC. (The Scarlet Brotherhood p.38,40)
- The first Touv king, Onatal, is crowned in Kundanol. Onatal unifies the Touv tribes and proclaims himself King of the Cities, founding the Kingdom of Kunda and eventually warring with the Olman. (The Scarlet Brotherhood p.36,38)
Around this year[edit timeline]
Notes
The Scarlet Brotherhood p.38 is the only source on the Touv Calendar. A date of 1 TC = -1408 CY is the correct conversion for the dates given in TSB p.38 (e.g. 4108 SD, 3055 OC, 1252 BH, 743 FT), although that book miscalculates -764 OR as -763 OR by the common mistake of forgetting to account for a a lack of a year zero in the Common Year calendar.[2]
- ↑ Living Greyhawk Gazetteer (2000), p.13.
- ↑ "When calculating Common Years prior to the Declaration of Universal Peace in 1 CY, remember that Common Year reckoning has no “year zero.” Thus, the time elapsed between 5 CY and –5 CY is only nine years, not ten."[1]
