Four Years War (FASA)
From Trekipedia
The Four Years War, as it later came to be known, was a mid-23rd century conflict between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire. The war began with the Battle of Axanar on Stardate 2251.241 (29 August 2251),[Notes 1] and lasted until the Treaty of Axanar was signed on Stardate 2255.164 (13 June 2255), for a span of nearly 46 months.[1]
Notes
- ↑ "The Four Years War" referred to events by a FASA-specific dating standard called the "Reference Stardate." All dates in this article have been adapted from that notation into standard Gregorian calendar dates, which are then adjusted for errors in the baseline dates used as reference by the FASA authors. Working with a known, dated event (e.g., the launch of the Constitution class starships), the other dates in the timeline can be adjusted accordingly. "The Four Years War" gives the launch of the Constitution class as Reference Stardate 1/8801.04, or 04 January 2188; this has been established on screen, however, as having occurred in 2245. As the exact month and date remain unstated in other sources, those remain the same, but the year is adjusted to 2245, giving a modified date of 04 January 2245. This can then be converted into the pre-TOS stardate system established in Star Trek (2009), giving us a stardate of 2245.004. Using this as a baseline, all other dates in the FASA timeline can be similarly modified and converted.
