2540 A.D.
The Earth has become overpopulated. Scientists, engineers and specialists from all over the world were brought together to develop space stations. The first three stations completed were America's, Japan's and Germany's. The stations were designed to hold the population of each country as it was during the turn of the 21st Century.
2575 A.D.
The three stations are placed into orbit around Earth. They at this point were now named Colonies. Respectively it was Neo America, Neo Japan and Neo Germany. Each Country sent up half of its Wealthiest population, half of it Government population and half of its middle-class population.
2645 A.D.
The Earth's resources have been used up. The Majority of the Earth's population has moved to the colonies. Militant factions protesting the move to the stars have began fighting the Earth's forces in an attempt to stop the World Government from leaving the planet to "rot" and have brought their fight to the streets. Entire cities have been leveled by battles between Mobile Suits. The Gundam Earth Defense Force (GEDF) was created with the manufacturing of five suits made from Gundarium.
2649 A.D.
More then half the factions fighting on Earth have been dismantled by the GEDF. The remaining factions begin using Nukes.
2660 A.D.
Only a few major cities remain worldwide. The remaining civilians have been transported to the colonies. Complete docking procedures are started on the colonies. There are a total of fifteen colonies now in orbit. And only a small fraction of the Earth's once astounding populace remain alive.
2665 A.D.
The Earth is lost. The colonies are now docked together and begin their movement through space in hopes of finding a new home world. The GEDF has fallen save for three pilots. Tyler Graves, James Frost and Cassandra Frost. James and Cassandra were ordered to protect the colonies. Tyler's unit was damaged so badly he was sealed inside. The nuke charges set near the Earth's core have fallen prey to a saboteur and they must be detonated by manual control. Tyler opts to stay behind and do this.
A.E. 0
The colonies are now safely out of range of the blast or fallout of the Earth. With the pressing of a button a new calendar is born. After Earth (A.E.). The Colonists begin mining deposits of Gundarium found on their colonies and on asteroids and even in planets deemed uninhabitable. Five new Gundams are made. The Children of the Frost's have come to age and inherited their parents Gundams. Kuhanten and Tiberius form a Mercenary group called the Frost Faction.
A.E. 21
The Colonies have trained their pilots and named the new Gundam Force the Gundam Knights. Their story beings now.
