The Index of World History: How to Use

This page is designed to give a comprehensive overview and map to our plant's and our specie's development. It can be used to search for specific time periods within Wikipedia or be viewed as a map of development. The page acts as an index within Wikipedia for historical search and consists of only time-lines of development, sometimes with very brief comments where applicable.

The Photon Epoch Between 10 seconds and 380,000 years after the Big Bang Cosmological/The Big Bang
The Reionization 150 million to 1 billion years after the Big Bang Cosmological/The Big Bang
Formation of our Solar System 8 to 9 billion years after the Big Bang Current theory and observations suggest that the universe is between 13.5 and 14 billion years old.[1] Cosmological/Evolution of the Solar System
 
The beginning of the geological Hadean Eon
Hadean Eon 4.54 - 3.8 billion years ago Oldest known mineral (Zircon, 4406±8 Ma[2]). Formation of Moon (4533 Ma), probably from giant impact. Formation of Earth (4567.17 to 4570 Ma)

Oldest known rock (4030 Ma)[3]. The first Lifeforms and self-replicating RNA molecules may have evolved on earth around 4000 Ma. Napier Orogeny in Antarctica, 4000 ± 200 Ma. Nectaris Basin and other major lunar basins were formed by large impact events. Ending with the Late Heavy Bombardment of the inner solar system.

The beginning of the geological Archean Eon
Archean Eon 3.8 - 2.5 billion years ago
  • 3.8 - 3.6 billion years ago
  • 3.6 - 3.2 billion years ago
  • 3.2 - 2.8 billion years ago
