Alright, so I'm writing down a rough timeline for my campaign right now and right now:
-All the races available to PCs and big bad races (orcs, goblinoids, Yuan-Ti) have been created (the others just pop up in the background at some time, I don't really care)
-The elder races (Elves, Dwarves, Dragons, Giants to a lesser extent) have fallen from power
-Humans have taken over most of the world
-Devils and Demons have rebelled and been defeated
Most of the big things have happened, now it's all just "normal" history until the era the PCs currently play in
And in all this only 16100 years have passed since the creation of the multiverse. Is this too little, should I just inflate the times to add more time for civilizations to rise and fall?
How are the timelines in your campaign, did you take a more realistic approach (evolution and whatnot) or did you just do the "gods made the races" thing?
Also, since I like hearing history/worldbuilding stuff, what are the big, world shaking events of the past that gave birth to legends and ancient heroes/splits in the driving forces of the universe?
