A timeline of all known incidents that happened in the world of Re:Zero.
Notes
This timeline is based on the Re:Zero material that is given in the Anime, Manga, Light Novel, and Web Novel.
Be aware that the historical events listed are seldom expanded upon, so details, especially concerning when they may have taken place, are not concrete.
The characters within the story rarely describe historical events within helpful context, so the unit BA, “Before Arrival”, and AA, “After Arrival”, will be used to place moments in time with the best available knowledge. Both are in reference to Natsuki Subaru’s arrival in the new world. Also, note that the units are not official.
The events that take place at an unspecified time are gathered under "??? BA" section.
Please note again that due to lack of information concerning the timing of events following Arc 5, the dates given here are potentially a subject of change or debate.

- The Witch of Envy began her rampage, kickstarting the apocalyptical event known as the Great Calamity. Starting from an unknown date and unknown location, the Witch irrationally began destroying the world around her, collapsing most of the old civilizations and killing untold numbers of people. Her actions also permanently shifted the geography of the world.
- The Great Sage Flugel, with the combined strengths of the Divine Dragon Volcanica, and the first Sword Saint Reid Astrea, attempted to kill the rampaging Witch of Envy. However, because the Witch was unable to be slain, she was instead sealed away within the vast expanse of the Augria Sand Dunes in eastern Lugunica. Flugel took it upon himself to build the great Pleiades Watchtower and ensure that the Witch would never be freed again.
- The Sanctuary was assaulted by the Warlock of Melancholy, who was in pursuit of the Witch of Greed.

Mathers suffered severe and crippling wounds during the face-off.

- Echidna began to experiment with immortality with the Ryuzu Meyer copies. The very first and mentally broken Ryuzu copy, named Sphinx, was involuntarily created, as Echidna failed the first attempt of transferring her soul into a vessel.

- One by one, the Witches of Sin died off. Minerva went crazy in a trap and died, Carmilla was burned to death, Daphne withered away in the Augria Sand Dunes, Typhon drowned in Priestella, and Sekhmet died after falling from the Great Waterfall whilst fighting against Volcanica.

- Arriving at Berstetz's mansion, Subaru's group saved Rem and Flop from the undead, as well as the imprisoned black-haired crown princes. Todd, on the other hand, retrieved his fiancée, and he and Subaru were forced to become allies in order to escape the city. Despite this, when the two were forced to work together to lure away the malformed undead Izmail from the others, after dealing with him, the two clashed again. Emilia, who had followed after Madelyn when she flew away and began helping the fleeing citizens escape with her ice constructs, found Rem's group, and after letting them escape while taking Rem along with her, they managed to defeat the transformed Todd and escape the city.
- Priscilla, Yorna, and Arakiya were found by the forces of the Great Disaster. This resulted in Priscilla being imprisoned, Yorna being held in the room being utilized by the undead Eugard Vollachia, and Arakiya being given a chance to devour the rest of Muspel in an attempt to save her. As everyone decided to retreat to Garkla via the coupled dragon carriages, Al stayed behind to save Priscilla, Cecilus stuck around the city, and Heinkel Astrea, depressed by his weakness and fear, was discovered by a wandering Rowan Segmunt. Elsewhere, Groovy Gumlet found himself on the run from numerous undead.
- On the coupled dragon carriages, after settling a dispute between Subaru and Vincent, Lugunica and Vollachia, for the first time in history decided to temporarily ally themselves to face the Great Disaster. Likewise, the Anastasia Camp and Halibel, who had also arrived, decided to provide their asssistance as well. Afterward, Subaru confronted Rui, and deciding to give her a chance, he renamed her to Spica. Shortly after came an attack led by Sphinx, Lamia, and the Pruning Corps. However, thanks to the efforts of Spica, Berstetz, and the other various warriors, they managed to repel the attack and slay the undead.
- After arriving in Garkla, everyone decided how to handle the Great Disaster. The majority of their offense would go to retake Lupugana while others remained behind to defend their current stronghold. Meanwhile, Al, Heinkel, Rowan, Cecilus, and Groovy were carving a path for Subaru's group to arrive, leading to confrontations with Balleroy, Yorna, Eugard, Madelyn (via Mezoreia), and Arakiya, who had lost control of her body after taking in the Stone.
- The Conquest of the Undead Capital. By Subaru's lead, the group separated appropriately to handle their various opponents. This resulted in the defeat of Madelyn, Arakiya regaining control of her body, Eugard regaining control of his mind, the Curse of Thorns being removed from him, and him switching sides, Balleroy's defeat, Yorna assisting the living again, Izmail's defeat, and Sphinx nearly being killed. However, she also managed shift her vessel from that of Sphinx to the Witch of Greed. The conflict continued, and despite the many threats that tempted to destroy the country, after Priscilla joined the fight after killing herself with the Yang Sword and coming back as an undead, they managed to defeat Sphinx completely using Spica's Astral Eating.
- After Subaru's group made for Lupugana, an undead force led by Palladio Manesque attacked Garkla, accompanied by Hornet and, later, an undead Sphinx. Though thanks to the efforts made in Lupugana, as well as the minds of Otto, Serena, and Berstetz and the sheer might of Goz and the Pleiades Battalion, the undead force were soundly defeated, with Sphinx crumbling and Palladio finding himself killed by Todd. The rest of the undead scattered across the country to go into hiding.
- Following the Great Disaster's end, the Pleiades Battalion disbanded and were pardoned as former gladiators. Numerous people saw promotions, and Moguro was left with the recovering Groovy and Olbart while he had no access to his prior memories. Eugard, who was bound to fade away, and Yorna manage to convince Vincent to rescind the command to slay the wolf and mole people. Meanwhile, after meeting with everyone she needed to, Priscilla faded away before the eyes of Subaru and Al atop the walls surrounding Garkla. Afterward, the members of the three Royal Selection camps decided to return home. However, around this same time, Al started on his scheme to remove Subaru from the world, taking Heinkel on as an ally, preparing the hiding Yae Tenzen, and maneuvering the Emilia Camp members where they needed to be.
- Searching for the thief who stole her Light Sphere, Zarestia attacked and destroyed half of Banan while confronting Ricardo, whose scent she mistook for the thief's. This event, which was later dubbed the Shinigami Disaster, subsided after Ricardo withstood a barrage of her attacks. Simultaneously, Anastasia learned of the attack while returning to report to the League of Cities, and she, Julius, and Eridna headed to Banan.
- After Anastasia's group arrived, they interrogated Zarestia and discovered that the mayor Riften Magoji had gone missing, that Zarestia was a Great Spirit, that her Light Sphere was missing, and that she was not the one responsible for the other windstorms assailing the towns besides Banan. Shortly after, the group went to confront the tornado making its way to Banan's remnants.
- Upon returning to Lugunica, Emilia and Otto left to report Priscilla's death to the Lugunican government, Rem and Ram returned to Roswaal Manor, Roswaal, Frederica, and Schult left for the Barielle Domain to handle the aftermath of their lord's death, and everyone else left for the Pleiades Watchtower. After an entire day spent there, Al tried and failed to seal Subaru, who had already undergone Return by Death and sealed Al away instead.
