Genesis Year

In the Aeon of the Champion story series, Genesis Year is equal to the year 0, marking the beginning of the First Earth War and the opening of the Genesis Portal. It is used as a chronological reference point, for all events thereafter are denoted positively (e.g. year 1) while all events beforehand are denoted negatively (e.g. year -1, or -1).

The terms BGP/Y (Before Genesis Year) and AGP/Y (After Genesis Year) are derived from this idea.

''Not all races use this notation. ''The night elves observe the Lunar Calendar, due to their faith in the power of the Moon Goddess, while humans use the Lucent Calendar as authorised by the Order of the Holy Light.
