    thank you so much, Terra ^___^


    Universal Century, including this Gundam series, in chronological order
    Note: the UC calendar starts around 2070somethin AD

    Mobile Suit Gundam - UC 0079 (One Year War - Earth vs. Zeon)
    8th MS Team - UC 0079 (side story of One Year War)
    War in the Pocket - UC 0080 (epilogue of One Year War)
    Stardust Memories - UC 0083 (Earth vs. what's left of Zeon - creation of Titans)
    Zeta Gundam - UC 0087 (Gryps Conflict - Titans [tyrannical Earth] vs. AEUG [Earth/Zeon who hate Titans] vs. Axis [Zeon returned from exile]
    Note: AEUG = Anti-Earth Union Group - formed after Titans were like Nazis in how they handled enemies of Earth
    Gundam Double Zeta - UC 0088 (AEUG vs. Neo Zeon v.1 [under rule of Haman Kahn])
    Char's Counterattack - UC 0090 (Earth/AEUG vs. Neo Zeon v.2 [under rule of Char Aznable] - end of Zeon altogether)
    Gundam F91 - UC 0123 (Crossbone Vanguard vs. Earth)
    Victory Gundam - UC 0153 (Zanscare Empire vs. Earth)
    G-Savior - UC 0223 (I-don't-care vs. go-to-hell) this was Bandai's SAD attempt at a live-action Gundam. I don't consider it full UC but that's the year it's given, apparently

    After Victory, they started making AU (alternate universes), starting with G-Gundam. Each universe had its calendar.

    G-Gundam - FC 60 (Future Century)
    Gundam Wing - AC 195-196 (After Colony)
    Gundam X - AW 15 (After War)
    Turn A Gundam - CC 2345 (Correct Century)
    Gundam Seed - CE 70-71 (Cosmic Era)

    And to answer your question WITHOUT a timeline filled with spoilers Galaxia-you-asshole. UC is the Universal century, the timeline that the original MS Gundam was set in and where numerous side-stories and continuations took place. This is considered the original setting for Gundam and where all spinoffs have taken at least a couple aspects. The numerous shows based in the UC time period make up the core of the Gundam franchise, although recent attempts to further the plot of that timeline have been vastly considered huge failures.

    All other Gundam shows are considered to be in an Alternate Universe (AU) from the UC timeline and have variations off the technology and storyline, though they often share at least one thing in common. Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny are not related to any other show but each other -taking place on the Cosmic Era timeline- (though many MS designs are taken from the UC & other timelines) and Destiny is the first actual TV show sequel to an AU Gundam, as far as I know.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
