When does The Acolyte take place on the Star Wars timeline?
Before we dive in, it’s worth refreshing ourselves on how the Star Wars calendar works.

Does that make sense?
Let’s dive in.
So, when exactly is that?

It’s actually 100 years before the events of The Phantom Menace, which was set in 32 BBY.
That means The Acolyte takes place in around132BBY, during the High Republic era.
The High Republic era lasted from roughly 500 BBY to 100 BBY, when the Sith emerged.

How does The Acolyte fit in to the rest of the Star Wars timeline?
In short, we’re a long way off from any mainline story.
