1200-1299 (The Kalmar Union)

1201
Orkney - Caithness is invaded by a huge Scottish army. Harald Maddadsson capitulates and pays tribute.

Leifia - Iofridr I dies. The realm is once again split between Iofridr's heirs. Eydis is crowned in Álengiamark. Eydis is regarded by contemporaries as very quick and shrewd. She apparently can speak Vinlandic, Danish, Latin, Skraeling (Beothukic), Quiripi and Passamaquoddy fluently and is a keen chess player. Thorey II is crowned in Vinland.

1202
Denmark - Canute VI dies. His son Magnus II succeeds as both King of Denmark and Count of Pomerania.

1205
Francia - The exiled Thorey I of Álengiamark dies in a French nunnery.

1206
Hordaland - Haakon V Haraldsson inherits Orkney, attaching them to the Hordaland crown. He and his heirs redirect Hordaland's power westwards

Scotland - Effectively blocked from exercising their power to the North and West, Scotland looks to make advances southwards at the expense of the overstretched Anglian realm.

Vinland - Thorey II of Vinland is killed in a hunting accident by a crossbow. Accusations of murder by her younger sister Kristjana and her lover the Earl of Konunglegursaey poison Vinlandic-Álengsk relations for years to come and briefly threaten to result in civil war. Kristjana I is crowned.

1207
Francia - Wessex inherits Normandy. Beginning of the Twenty Years War as France, Wessex, Maine and Brittany attempt to outmaneuver each other and dominate northern France.

Álengiamark - Eydis is dissuaded by a invasion of Vinland by increased Kanien'gehaga pressure on the Northwestern border.

1208
East Scandinavia - John and Sverker clash at the Battle of Lena but John wins securing his rule in Svealand.

1209
Hordaland - Haakon V Haraldsson dies. Succeeded by Olaf IV. Olaf spends much of his rule attempting to prop up the Scottish kingdom, concerned that Anglia is becoming too dominant in the British Isles.

1210
Gothenland - Sverker II dies. Karl II succeeds in Gothenland

Álengiamark (The Kalmar Union) - Through trades, bargaining and shrewd marriages of her relations Eydis expands Álengiamark to include a portion of Ontario lakefront east of Godifoss - the Earldom of Ontario.

1212
Svealand - John dies of fever. His sister Karin Knutsdotter becomes queen as the nobles cite Vinland and Viken's precedent. She is married to Earl Knut Birgersson and the nobles hope they can keep Svealand safe from attack while appeasing Karin's royal family connections.

Anglia - Harold III dies. Charles II succeeds.

A dispute between Scotland and Anglia over taxes and fealty provides Scotland with a cause for war. The Long Scottish War (1212-1290) begins. Surprising an unsuspecting Anglia it takes Jorvik and advances on Sheffield. At the Battle of Leeds, the Scottish army is routed.

1214
Finland - With Karin's queenship fully accepted Svealand crusades in Finland mirroring Denmark's further incursions in Livonia and Estonia.

1214
Scotland - Following further skirmishes Charles II of Anglia marches into Scotland, outlaws King Malcolm and effectively annexes the country.

Wessex - Theobald dies. Henry II succeeds and imprisons his mother Matilda for 'treason'. This leads to a minor civil war as Matilda's supporters attempt to free her and usurp Henry.

1215
Svealand - Knut Birgersson dies. Karin has three daughters but no sons and at her nobles' insistence she marries prince Valdemar of Viken.

Prussia - Feeling surrounded, Gothenland crusades in Prussia intensifying the rivalry between the German backed Teutonic Order and the Scandinavian kingdoms.

1217
Scotland - Scotland revolts. Distracted by continental matters Charles II is only able to hold the frontier, rather than re-enter Scotland.

Vinland - Vinland fortifies Fjallasay(OTL Montreal), upriver from Quebec. It fights a minor war with the Eastern Algonquin over the settlement.

1219
Estonia - At the battle of Lyndanisse Denmark defeats the remaining Estonian army allowing the annexation of Northern Estonia. The Danish flag 'falls from the sky' during the battle. This is likely to be a borrowing of a Portuguese legend via Magnus II's 2nd wife.

1220
Wessex - The Wessex nobles revolt, tired of the ongoing Twenty Year War and the increasing demands on their incomes.

1221
Viken - Wislaw I inherits his brother's principality of Rugia. This enlarged Viken begins to take over the trade of the southern Baltic. Rugia acting as a depot at one end while Oslo acts as the other.

Svealand - Karin dies. Under Valdemar of Viken's regency their son John II succeeds in Svealand.

1222
Saaremaa - Osel is handed over completely to the Bishop of Osel as the Teutonic Order is severely undermining the Danish backed Duchy. A final revolt three months later establishes a native Estonian dynasty on the island. Swift (but shallow) christianisation allows them to claim papal protection.

The Bishop of Osel, hostile to the new rulers invites Svealand to rescue the bishopric 'from the heathen'. Valdemar of Viken agrees, hoping to build a beach-head to further conquest in Livonia and Novgorod, and also increase his standing in Svealand. But the attack fails, culminating in the Battle of Leisi.

Valdemar returns home to face immediate revolt from the earls.

Wessex - King Henry II signs the Magna Carta placing limits on his power and making the parliament responsible for raising taxes.

1223
Svealand - Valdemar of Viken is driven out of Svealand and his son John II is crowned despite his minority. Svealand's expansion to the east is effectively halted for 25 years as he repeatedly attempts to assert control over the country.

1225
Álengiamark - Eydis dies. Her daughter Frida I is crowned. Taking advantage of the perceived weakness in Álengiamark, the Kanien'gehaga and Erie tribes defeat the Earl of Ontario and Algoquin vassals in pitched battles splitting the earldom between them.

1230
Álengiamark - Frida I dies. Her sister Adalbjorg I is crowned.

Vinland - Kristjana I dies on Christmas Day. Jakobina I is crowned.

1231
Vinland - Jakobina I dies. Freydis II is crowned.

Leifia - Famine hits Leifia.

1233
Denmark - Magnus II dies. Eric II inherits Denmark, Pomerania & Estonia.

1236
Anglia - Charles II dies. On his son John's coronation, Scotland refuses to pledge fealty. Scottish nobles in Lincoln are executed.

Aniyunwiya - After years of famine and decades of internecine warfare the Aniyunwiyan Tribes are united under Edoha. A massive army is raised which quickly defeats the Ohio and Muscogee.

1238
The Rus' - The Mongol Horde burns Vladimir, essentially destroying Kievan Rus' unity.

Aniyunwiya - The Unami army and its northern allies are comprehensively annihilated at the Battle of Seven Kings. The Aniyunwiyan absorb the Haudenosaunee, Erie and Unami into their empire.

Álengiamark - St. Hafdiss is burnt by Aniyunwiya cavalry. Adalbjorg I is captured in the Sudervik and held hostage. Álengiamark is made a adjunct of the Aniyunwiyan Empire (they also claim Vinland) but the resurgent Wampanoags frustrate any attempt to subject the kingdoms further north to the Empire's rule. The Aniyunwiyan humour the Álengsk and place Edoha's youngest daughter Atamaja on the Álengsk throne.

1240
Leifia - An Aniyunwiyan naval fleet is destroyed on Ontario Vatnin by Vinland and Algonquin allies. As a result the Erie are emboldened to rebel but this fails. However the Aniyunwiyans never again have control of the lake. The Earldom of Ontario is given to the Aniyunwiyan by Vinland in return for Adalbjorg I.

1241
Bohemia - At the request of Duke Henry II of Silesia, Denmark and Gothenland sends troops to help defend Bohemia and Hungary against the Mongols. They pick up Sorbian troops on the way. The alliance is defeated at the battle of Legnica as are the Hungarians further south, but sufficiently mauls the Mongol force to stop their advance into Bohemia and they soon turn back after the death of their Khan.

Anglia - John I dies at the Battle of Vignacourt. His brother Conrad, Count of Hainault, is crowned at Ghent. He will spend his entire reign in Anglia's continental possessions, allowing Anglia (and occasionally Scotland) to be ruled by a rudimentary Baronial Witenage at Lincoln.

1242
Livonia - Novogrod defeats a Teutonic Order army preparing to crusade against it at Lake Peipus. This relaxes the pressure on Danish Estonia, as well as Estonian Osel (Saaremaa).

Poland - Henry II uses Danish troops to help him return devastated Southern Poland to his rule and begin the process of Polish unification. His and his successors' gratitude gives Denmark Polish support on dealings with the Empire and the Teutonic Order.

1243
Livonia & Prussia - William of Modena divides the crusader states of Prussia and Livonia into bishoprics and knight's lands.

1249
Viken - Wizlaw I dies. Jaromar II is proclaimed prince of Rugia and 5 months later confirmed as king of Viken.

1252
Finland - The bishopric of Helsingfors is setup in Finland confirming Svealand's ownership of the region. The Duchy of Finland follows swiftly, usually given to the first son of the Svealand king (in the same manner as Schleswig is given Denmark's heir).

Denmark - Eric II dies. Eric III inherits Denmark & its territory.

Vinland - Freydis II dies. Thorey III is crowned.

1253
Wessex - Henry II dies. His son Edmund IV succeeds.

1256
Svealand - John II dies. Cnut II succeeds.

1260
The Baltic - The situation in Livonia largely ossifies. Denmark holds Northern Estonia with several large forts holding the line against the Teutonic Order to the south. The order itself is weakened by high losses in its wars with Lithuania and Poland. Teutonic land is pockmarked by large swathes of Bishoprics beholden to no one but the pope. The independent Saaremaa is quickly becoming a relatively wealthy duchy, being able to control trade amongst the rival powers of the Eastern Baltic. Lithuania continues to press against Poland to its West and Gothenland's coastal fortresses. To the east Novogorod is recovering after its damaging war against the Mongols while in the north Svealand presses against Karelia.

Viken - Jaromar dies. Wizlaw II succeeds in both Viken and Rugia.

Wessex - Edmund IV dies. His brother Robert I succeeds.

1261
Svealand - Cnut II dies, childless. His cousin Eric VII succeeds, but barely, Svealand quickly descends into civil war as the three branches of the House of Eric fight for the crown. Denmark tries vainly to contain the violence.

Vinland - Thorey III dies. Kristjana II is crowned.

1267
Svealand - Eric VII is deposed by John III. Eric goes to Finland to rebuild his power with his supporters there. To future generations he is known as Eric I of Finland.

1269
Gothenland - Gothenland finally annexes Gotland after a century of slowly extending its influence.

1270
Man - Sigurd III succeeds.

1271
Gothenland - Gothenland captures Memel, the kernel of their future Samland territory.

1273
Man - King Sigurd III of Man and Queen Cacht of Leinister marry, attaching Leinister to the Manx kingdom.

North Atlantic - The Danish courtier Kristian of Orel complains he cannot understand the language of the Vinlanders. It has absorbed many Cornish and Skraeling words. Álengsk is regarded as even worse; it being a hybrid of Norse, Vinlandic, Quiripi and Mohegan.

1274
West Scandinavia - Denmark and Viken-Rugia skirt close to war over increasing Danish tolls on the straits. As a Danish subject in Rugia Wizlaw II backs down as a large Danish army bears down on rebellious Pomerania. His daughter Sophie becomes King Eric III's 3rd wife.

1275
Pomerania - The Danish expedition to Pomerania is routed by German armies and Rugia is beseiged by Emperor William (of Holland) himself. Only a Gothenland and Viken relief force that manages to defeat William's local Pomeranian navy stop the island itself falling. Denmark will spend much of the next century trying to regain Pomerania.

Anglia - Conrad dies. Charles III succeeds.

Leifia - Edoha, ruler of Aniyunwiya, dies and his Empire splinters, though the various pieces remain strong. Álengiamark is left in control of the Unami, Ontario and the Nanticoke peninsular.

1276
Denmark - Apparently in revenge for the loss of its mainland Rugia possessions and the usual straits tolls, Viken invades Scania. Wizlaw II and Eric III meet at the battle of Orust. They are brought together by the Bishops of Aarhus and Hamar. Eric hands Rugia to Viken in return for the High crown of Norway (acknowledging a situation that already existed). Wizlaw promises to campaign in Pomerania for the Danish crown.

Wessex - Robert I dies. Edward IV succeeds.

1279
Anglia - Charles's attempts to reassert power over the Witenage and extract taxes to pay for his French wars lead to the Anglian Baron's war.

Man - Queen Cacht dies. Her and Sigurd's young son Haakon is proclaimed King of Leinister.

1280
North Atlantic - In the effort to transport a massive Icelandic army (well massive for Vinland - prob. 500-800 men) for a campaign in the Fraeburt Votnum, vast amounts of food and supplies are sent to Greenland.

Vinland - Kristjana II dies. Thyri I is crowned.

1281
Anglia - Humbled by defeat Charles agrees to the Baron's demands along the lines of Wessex's Magna Carta; a permanent Witenage and a rule of law. In return Charles gets the money needed to secure Artois.

Álengiamark - Atamaja dies. By all accounts she has been a fair and just ruler, careful to keep her realm out of Aniyunwiyan politics as much as possible. She rebuilt St Hafdiss, allowed the expansion of church land and presided over a relative boom in culture. Even so, to reconcile Vinland and receive military help from its neighbours the Althing elects Thorey II (both Thyri I and Atamaja's cousin) as her heir. They reaffirm their allegiance to Denmark.

Vinland - Vinland makes heavy use of Icelandic Pavise Crossbowmen against the Sauk at the siege of Saginaw. Their return to Iceland and subsequent deployment in the Brabant-Luxembourg war is noted as the first outbreak of Great Pox in Europe.

1282
Finland - Eric VII (I) dies. His son Eric (II) succeeds in Finland but claims Svealand.

Svealand - John III dies. His son Magnus III attempts an invasion of Finland but is frustrated by Saaremese and Novgorodian raiders.

Scotland - Scotland allies with Wessex, basically preventing Anglia from marching on Scotland again.

Vinland - By the Treaty of Mississauga Vinland extends its rule to Hafsvaedaland (OTL roughly Eastern Michigan and Southern Ontario), though this is tenuous and its various tribes, though technically demoted from kingdoms to earldoms, retain virtual independence and no tax is ever sent to Isafjordhur.

Leifia - Sioux scouts lead Greenlandic traders from Miklasjo (OTL Lake Superior) to the Roasjoinn (OTL Pacific Ocean). At roughly the same time Vinlanders see the Roasjoinn in Mexica.

1287
Vinland - Thyri I dies. Kristjana III is crowned.

1289
Lade - The line of Ladish Earls comes to an end. By common consent the title is taken as a fief of Denmark to stop a potentially ruinous war between Hordaland and its island dominions vs Viken-Rugia. Denmark slowly strangles off Lade's control of trade routes westwards for its own gain.

1290
Britannia - End of the Long Scottish War. Scotland's independence is recognised, not only by Anglia, but also Orkney (Hordaland) and Man. Anglia no longer demands fealty from its kings.

1291
Denmark - Eric III dies. Eric IV succeeds.
