So, this is knowledge from my collection of 478 comic books as well as what I know from Young Justice, both seasons, Legacy, and the comic books as well as the prior knowledge given before the seasons began about the characters. I went off a lot from the comic books prior to the New 52 by a certain point and altered things to fit the Earth 16 story. I also pulled populaR fanfiction thoughts. Like Dick being born in Romania (still have no clue where that even came from but I love), or one of my favorites is Dick knowing about the Court of Owls which is the big secret kept near the end of the time line. Enjoy

Jason Todd was 11, he was only Robin for most like one or two years. There should be at least a five to six month break between Jason's death and Tim becoming Robin meaning Jason must've died in 2018 but Tim also needed training time so Tim probably was discovered six months after Jason's death and batman trains for at least two to three month before Robin is brought back into the field. So that would be about 8 months after Jason's death. Dick would most like have quit the role by 15 or 16 if Jason was Robin for one or two years. Again with two months of training suggests that Jason was discovered in late 2011 and became Robin in 2012. Nightwing's leadership was a year old by 2016. He was Nightwing for at least a year before that according to his role in Legacy. So he must have become Robin in late 2013 or early 2014, becoming leader in 2015 according to legacy and the comic books.
In most resources, there is about a five year gap between Jason's death and the introduction of Red Hood. Jason dies in 2013 so by 2016, it's already almost 3 years exactly since his death by the end of the season. Because he was so young when he died, it makes sense to stick to a five year gap. 2018 is when Red Hood makes his introduction, making Jason 16, Dick 22, Tim 17. Damian is introduced to the story once Tim becomes 17 but it's suggested Tim will be 18 when he parts after Damian is brought in to give the red hood incident time to take place and settle. Damian must be introduced in 2019. Damian only knows his father for less than a year. This suggests Batman's death to be in 2020. There is two months of batman and robin where they are absent from the team, league, gotham, and Nightwing from Blud Haven. Nightwing does not return for a long while. He gives Damian the role of Robin even though Tim thought he would step up for it but Dick states that Damian needs someone with patience to care and train him as well as a field to be on.
Batman is back in gotham (Dick Grayson) and the cover he steps up to the league but keeps his distance from both the league and the team, never wanting to intervene again. He refuses to allow Damian on the team or around them unless he is around. Damian wishes to be trusted but it's not Damian he doesn't trust. After understanding the incident of trust and the team of forever rookies, Damian understands his mentor's wish. They become like father and son.
2021- the Insider is introduced (Bruce)
2022- Bruce returns and the Insider is put away. Nightwing returns to Blud Haven, keeping connected with Damian and helping the relationship between Damian and Bruce. Bruce decides to keep away from the league for awhile, Nightwing being offered a spot but he refuses, stating that nothing has changed.
- he temporarily regroups with the Haly's circus to be with Raya, a past love, but she is killed by the Joker along with several members from the circus. He leaves shortly after for good, Haly's circus shutting down after the rest of the bat family discovers the secrets Dick and the circus have kept for centuries, Dick eversince he was 10. Damian feels hurt by the secret but doesn't hold a grudge, stilling having a strong connection with Dick.
2023- Damian is killed by the older Damian from another dimension.
-Nightwing moves to Chicago to hunt down Tony Zucco
- Red Robin moves to Blud Haven and out of Gotham completely. He regroups with the team but is more connected with the league.
- Talia Al'Ghul is also murdered.
