Star Was has revealed its in-universe calendar system... 1 / 7
Revealed by Pablo Hidalgo in his in-universe reference book, Scum & Villainy. 2 / 7
It seems the galaxy uses a calendar called "CRC," 3 / 7
Which is cleverly oriented around the Battle of Yavin and the release of the first Star Wars film. 4 / 7
Star Wars came out in 1977, so Hidalgo arbitrarily adds six millennia to date that as 7977. 5 / 7
Everything else orients around that date - so, for example, Star Wars 9 is in 8012. 6 / 7
Does the calendar date from the Republic's founding, or some other event? 7 / 7
