Notes and referencesEdit

↑ The New Essential Chronology states that the Great Hyperspace War began in 5,000 BBY, which is 1,347 BTC in Star Wars: The Old Republic's Galactic Timeline, so the difference between the calendar based on the Battle of Yavin and the calendar based on the Treaty of Coruscant is 3,653 years. This date is derived using simple math based upon other confirmed dates. ↑ The New Essential Chronology states that the Ruusan Reformation occurred in 1,000 BBY, which is the zero point of the calendar based on the Ruusan Reformation, so the difference between the calendar based on the Battle of Yavin and the Ruusan Reformation's year-notation system is 1,000 years. This date is derived using simple math based upon other confirmed dates. ↑ The Essential Atlas states that the Battle of Yavin occurred in year 35, which is the zero point of the BBY/ABY year-notation system, so the difference between the calendar based on the Battle of Yavin and the Great ReSynchronization's year-notation system is thirty-five years. This date is derived from simple math based upon other confirmed dates. ↑ 4.00 4.01 4.02 4.03 4.04 4.05 4.06 4.07 4.08 4.09 4.10 4.11 4.12 4.13 4.14 4.15 4.16 4.17 4.18 4.19 4.20 4.21 4.22 4.23 4.24 4.25 4.26 4.27 4.28 4.29 4.30 4.31 4.32 4.33 4.34 4.35 4.36 4.37 4.38 4.39 4.40 4.41 4.42 4.43 4.44 4.45 4.46 4.47 4.48 4.49 4.50 4.51 4.52 4.53 4.54 4.55 4.56 4.57 4.58 4.59 4.60 4.61 4.62 4.63 4.64 4.65 4.66 4.67 4.68 4.69 4.70 4.71 4.72 4.73 4.74 Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith ↑  "Star Wars Eras" – "Keeper of the Holocron's Blog," Leland Chee's StarWars.com Blog ↑ Star Wars: Battlefront II ↑ 7.0 7.1 7.2 7.3 7.4 7.5 7.6 7.7 7.8 7.9 Star Wars: Purge ↑ Evil Never Dies: The Sith Dynasties on Hyperspace (article) (content now obsolete; backup links 1 2 on Archive.org) ↑ 9.0 9.1 Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force ↑ 10.0 10.1 10.2 In His Image ↑ 11.0 11.1 11.2 Imperial Commando: 501st ↑ 12.00 12.01 12.02 12.03 12.04 12.05 12.06 12.07 12.08 12.09 12.10 12.11 12.12 12.13 12.14 12.15 12.16 12.17 The Essential Guide to Warfare ↑ The New Essential Guide to Characters ↑ The Essential Guide to Characters ↑ 15.0 15.1  "Major Character Birth Years" – "Keeper of the Holocron's Blog," Leland Chee's StarWars.com Blog ↑ 16.00 16.01 16.02 16.03 16.04 16.05 16.06 16.07 16.08 16.09 16.10 Star Wars: Republic: The Hidden Enemy ↑ 17.0 17.1 17.2 17.3 17.4 "Unknown Soldier: The Story of General Grievous"—Star Wars Insider 86 ↑ 18.0 18.1 18.2 Star Wars: Clone Wars – "Chapter 25" ↑ 19.0 19.1 19.2 19.3 19.4 19.5 19.6 19.7 19.8 19.9 Star Wars: Republic: The Siege of Saleucami ↑ 20.0 20.1 Labyrinth of Evil ↑ Millennium Falcon ↑  Nem Bees in the Databank (content now obsolete; backup link on Archive.org) ↑  "The Order of Outcasts" - Clone Wars Adventures: Volume 5 ↑ 24.0 24.1 Star Wars: Republic: Into the Unknown ↑  "Orders" - Clone Wars Adventures: Volume 4 ↑ 26.0 26.1 Reversal of Fortune ↑ 27.0 27.1 "Order 66: Destroy All Jedi"—Star Wars Insider 87 ↑ 28.0 28.1 28.2 28.3 28.4 28.5 28.6 28.7 28.8 Star Wars: Dark Times: Parallels ↑ 29.0 29.1 29.2 29.3 29.4 29.5 29.6 29.7 29.8 29.9 Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader ↑  Olana Chion in the Databank (content now obsolete; backup link on Archive.org) ↑ 31.0 31.1 Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith video game ↑ Star Wars Rebellion: The Ahakista Gambit ↑ Order 66: A Republic Commando Novel ↑ The Last of the Jedi: Underworld ↑ 35.0 35.1 35.2 35.3 35.4 The Last of the Jedi: Secret Weapon ↑ 36.0 36.1 36.2 Star Wars: Republic 78: Loyalties ↑ 37.0 37.1 37.2 37.3 37.4 37.5 Star Wars: Dark Times: The Path to Nowhere ↑ Coruscant Nights I: Jedi Twilight ↑ 39.0 39.1 Star Wars: Dark Times: Vector ↑ 40.0 40.1 40.2 Star Wars: Dark Times: Blue Harvest ↑ The Last of the Jedi: Dark Warning ↑ 42.0 42.1 42.2 42.3 42.4 42.5 42.6 The Last of the Jedi: Death on Naboo ↑ 43.0 43.1 The Last of the Jedi: Return of the Dark Side ↑ 44.0 44.1 The Last of the Jedi: The Desperate Mission ↑ Death in the Slave Pits of Lorrd on Hyperspace (article) (content now obsolete; backup links 1 2 on Archive.org) ↑ The Last of the Jedi: Against the Empire ↑ The Essential Guide to Characters establishes that Baas was killed by Emperor Palpatine in the Great Jedi Purge, before Palpatine obtained the Tedryn Holocron.
