Not since the Twin Cataclysms have so many people been affected
by related events. The continent wide struggle of the Greyhawk Wars shapes
the future of the Flanaess.
Note: Although care has been made to arrange events in a relational
fashion, unspecified dates are arranged, where possible, only according to
logical chronological order, not to a fixed order in time. It is assumed, for
instance, that Iuz defeats Adumfort before he captures Lord Holmer, but the
texts do not give an indication of when in the year these events occurs.
