The year 3,642 before the Battle of Yavin (BBY) was a time period that brought significant changes to the state of the galaxy. Also known as the year 11 after the Treaty of Coruscant (BTC), it marked the end of the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire and the renewal of hostilities in the form of the Second Great Galactic War. A galaxy-spanning conflict similar to the first, the second war's origins could be traced back to numerous events and proxy wars between the two galactic powers during the previous decade and the early months of the year. Conflicts from the year before such as the Desolator Crisis, Plan Zero, and the defection of the Republic's Havoc Squad served to increase the tensions between the Empire and Republic, and open warfare soon broke out in when the planet Balmorra was liberated from Imperial control and the Empire conquered the world of Taris. The freeing of the ancient Jedi Master Revan was the event that finally sparked the Empire into action, marking the end of the Cold War and a return to open conflict.

Events

The planet Balmorra is freed from Imperial control by the forces of the Galactic Republic and the Balmorran Resistance.^[9]
The Empire occupies the Republic world of Taris, effectively halting the Republic resettlement project.
The Jedi Master Revan is freed from the Maelstrom prison after over three hundred years of captivity by a Republic strike team.
Darth Baras' Plan Zero is implemented with the help of his apprentice, which combined with Revan's escape and the recent conflicts ignites the fires of war across the galaxy. After eleven years, the Cold War ends and the Second Great Galactic War begins.
- Thanks to Baras' machinations, his student is successful in the assassination of Baras' former master Darth Vengean on Dromund Kaas, allowing Baras to take Vengean's place on the Dark Council.^[10]
Revan's attempts to use the Rakatan space station known as the Foundry are halted by an Imperial strike force. The Sith Lord Darth Malgus later takes control of the station for his own purposes.
A Jedi strike team led by Jedi Master Tol Braga attempts to capture the Sith Emperor aboard his space fortress, but are defeated and turned to the dark side.

This forum post from Star Wars: The Old Republic's lead writer, Daniel Erickson, indicates that the game takes place about ten to twelve years after the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant. According to The Essential Atlas, the Treaty is signed in 3,653 BBY, placing the game between 3,643 BBY and 3,641 BBY. Therefore, the game must fall within the Inter-Sith Wars period, which spans between 3,950 BBY and 2,000 BBY.
