Overview
Anno Yalta (AY) is the calendar system currently in common use across the known world. Its origin point is set to the year immediately following the collapse of the Yalta Empire — marking not an end, but a new beginning for humanity. The name Anno Yalta, meaning roughly "In the Year of Yalta," reflects a collective resolve to move forward into a new era while preserving the memory of the empire that once united humankind.
History
Before Anno Yalta
In the immediate aftermath of the Mana Cataclysm, Imperial Yalta remained nominally in use across much of the known world, even as the empire itself had ceased to exist. With no central authority to enforce a unified standard, time continued to be measured by a system tied to a nation that was no more. This inconsistency persisted through decades of fragmentation and reconstruction.
Adoption
Anno Yalta was formally ratified as the common standard of reckoning at the Three Powers Summit of the Central Continent, convened in IY 745. Representatives of Tilrestan, Krossen, and Tragon reached agreement on a shared calendar system — one that acknowledged the fall of the Yalta Empire as a turning point in history, while honouring it as the ancestral homeland of all humanity. The name Anno Yalta was accepted by all three powers as a neutral and fitting designation, rooted in a common origin rather than the identity of any single nation. The first year of Anno Yalta is reckoned from the day following the last day of Imperial Yalta, establishing continuity with the prior calendar while marking a clear break from the imperial age.
