- 3E 109 — Debauchery in the Imperial City
- Ten years into his reign, the obese and lecherous Emperor Antiochus has done little to impress his subjects besides the unquenchable hedonism he exhibits.
- 3E 110 — War of the Isle
- During the reign of Emperor Antiochus, the province of Summerset is nearly lost to the Maormer. The united alliance of the kings of Summerset and Antiochus only manage to defeat King Orgnum of the island-kingdom of Pyandonea due to a freak storm. Legend later credits the Psijic Order of the Isle of Artaeum with the magic behind the storm.
- 3E 111 — Knights of the Nine are founded
- The Knights of the Nine are founded by Sir Amiel Lannus, a hero of the War of the Isle, with the aim of recovering the lost relics of Pelinal Whitestrake.
- 3E 114 — Empress Kintyra II reportedly dies
- Some sources later erroneously assert that Empress Kintyra is slain after being captured by Uriel III. In truth, she was not even Empress yet at this time, and doesn't die until 3E 123 (23rd of Frostfall, now named the day of Broken Diamonds).
- 3E 119 — Pelagius III is born
- The future emperor of Tamriel is born to Magnus Septim, then King of Wayrest.
- 3E 120 — Emperor Antiochus dies, Empress Kintyra II is crowned
- Princess Kintyra is chosen by the Elder Council over King Uriel Mantiarco, despite the lobbying efforts of his mother Potema.[nb 4]
- 3E 121 — Uriel III is proclaimed Emperor
- The Imperial City itself is taken over in only a fortnight, as two other attacks draw away Imperial forces. Uriel III is proclaimed Emperor of Tamriel. He abandons his father's surname of Mantiarco and takes the Septim name. Empress Kintyra II is taken captive in High Rock as Tamriel takes sides between Uriel III and his uncles.
- 3E 121 — War of the Red Diamond
- This war was between the three surviving children of Pelagius II: Potema, Cephorus, and Magnus, and their respective offspring. Potema, of course, supports her son Uriel III, and has the support of all of Skyrim and northern Morrowind. With the efforts of Cephorus and Magnus, all of High Rock eventually supports them. Hammerfell, Summerset Isle, Valenwood, Elsweyr, and Black Marsh were divided, but most kings supported Cephorus and Magnus.
- 3E 123, 23rd of Frost Fall — Empress Kintyra II dies in her cell
- Although reported to have died in 3E 114, the captive Empress Kintyra dies in secret in her cell. The 23rd of Frostfall is later named the day of Broken Diamond in her memory.
- 3E 127 — Emperor Uriel III dies, Emperor Cephorus I is crowned
- Uriel III is captured at the Battle of Ichidag in Hammerfell. En route to his trial in the Imperial City, a mob overtakes his carriage and burns him alive within it. His captor and uncle continues on to the Imperial City, and by common acclaim becomes Emperor Cephorus I. Cephorus' reign is marked by nothing but war. The Empire acquiesces to demands for greater autonomy from the nobility of all the outlying provinces except Elsweyr. It takes Cephorus an additional ten years of constant warfare to defeat his sister Potema.
- Potema defeats the forces of her brother Magnus in the Battle of Falconstar.
- 3E 131 — Knights of the Nine dissolved

- 3E 139 — Sir Casimir loses the Guantlets of the Crusader
- After the knight kills a beggar in the Chapel of Stendarr in Chorrol, the guantlets slip off his hands and lie immovable on the floor of the chapel, waiting for a new champion.
- 3E 140 — Emperor Cephorus I dies, Emperor Magnus is crowned
- Cephorus never had the time to marry, so it is his brother, the fourth child of Pelagius II, who assumes the throne. The Emperor Magnus is elderly, and the business of punishing the traitorous kings of the War of the Red Diamond drains much of his health.
- 3E 141 — King Pelagius of Solitude marries Duchess Katariah of Vvardenfell
- The future Emperor of Tamriel is recorded as "occasionally eccentric" in the Imperial Annals. He marries the Duchess on the orders of his father, Emperor Magnus.
- 3E 145, 8th of Second Seed — Emperor Magnus dies, Emperor Pelagius III is crowned
- Pelagius leaves the throne of Solitude to his sister Jolethe. Almost from the start, Pelagius III, sometimes called Pelagius the Mad, becomes noted for his eccentric behavior. He embarrasses dignitaries, offends his vassal kings, and, on one occasion, marks the end of a grand ball by attempting to hang himself.
- 3E 150 — Last sighting of Sir Amiel Lannus
- The founder of the Knights of the Nine is seen for the last time, living alone in the priory of his defunct order.
- The Siege of Abernanit takes place in Morrowind.
- 3E 153, 2nd of Suns Dawn — Emperor Pelagius III dies, Empress Katariah is crowned
- After being committed to an asylum due to his madness, on a warm night after a brief fever, the 34-year-old Emperor Pelagius III dies in his cell at the Temple of Kynareth, on the Isle of Betony. Katariah, Duchess of Vvardenfell and Empress Regent following the commitment of her husband, formally becomes the controversial new Empress. Katariah's forty-six year reign is later remembered one of the most glorious in Tamriel's history (assertions to the contrary being dismissed as racist). Katariah travels extensively throughout the Empire, as no Emperor had since Tiber's day. She repairs much of the damage that broken alliances and bungled diplomacy had created. The people of Tamriel come to love their Empress, though many nobles are not as fond.
- At some point during the year, Sir Amiel Lannus dies alone in the Priory of the Nine.
- 3E 195 — Rangidil Ketil dies
- The commander of the Ordinators of the Tribunal Temple dies at the age of 288.
Third Century
- Katariah's death in a minor skirmish in Black Marsh later becomes a favorite topic of conspiracy-minded historians. It later comes to light that a disenfranchised branch of the Septim family is involved. When Cassynder assumes the throne at the death of his mother, he is already middle-aged and in poor health.[nb 5]
- Cassynder dies after a two-year reign. Uriel Lariat, Cassynder's half-brother and the child of Katariah I and her Imperial consort, abdicates the throne of Wayrest to reign as Emperor Uriel IV. Legally, he was Uriel Septim IV: Cassynder had adopted him into the family when he had become King of Wayrest. Nevertheless, to many of the people of Tamriel, Uriel IV is a bastard child of Katariah. Uriel does not possess the dynamism of his mother, and his long forty-three year reign becomes a hotbed of sedition.
- 3E 213 — Song of the Askelde Men published
- The traditional Nordic poem is translated by the Atheneum Monks at Old Anthel.
- 3E 247 — Emperor Uriel IV dies, Emperor Cephorus II is crowned
- The Elder Council's last victory over Uriel IV is posthumous: they vote to disinherit Andorak, Uriel IV's son. They also vote to coronate a cousin more closely related to the original Septim line as Emperor Cephorus II. Cephorus, formerly a Nordic king, battles those loyal to Andorak for nine years. The Council controversially grants Andorak the High Rock kingdom of Shornhelm to end the war.
- 3E 249 — Camoran Usurper invades
- During the reign of Cephorus II, the Camoran Usurper leads an army of daedra and undead warriors on a rampage through Valenwood, conquering the whole province in two years, then turns to Hammerfell. Cephorus II sends more and more mercenaries into Hammerfell to stop the Usurper's northward march, but they are bribed, turned into undead, or slaughtered. Animosity grows against the seemingly ineffective Empire.
- 3E 253 — Nightmare Host controls Dwynnen
- The region of Dwynnen is under the rule of a lich and his armies of undead. They are defeated by Othrok, the future Baron of the land. They were reportedly under the command of the Camoran Usurper.
- Elinhir, a Crown city, does not answer the clarion call of Forebear cities Rihad and Taneth, allowing the Camoran Usurper to continue his northward march through Hammerfell.
- 3E 266 — Lord of Reich Gradkeep (Anticlere) dies
- The Lord falls deathly ill and dies later in the year. This was one of the reasons why the resistance to the Usurper was so slow to develop in High Rock, who only become fully aware of the Usurper's conquests this year. Preparations would not begin until a year later.
- 3E 267 — Camoran Usurper is defeated
- Baron Othrok and his less legendary allies, the rulers of Ykalon, Phrygias, and Kambria, assembles the greatest navy to date along the High Rock edge of the Iliac Bay, and defeats the Usurper's forces in the Battle of Firewaves.
- 3E 268 — Emperor Uriel V is crowned

- Uriel V is killed in Akavir on the battlefield of Ionith. His five-year-old son becomes Emperor Uriel Septim VI. The consort Thonica, as Uriel VI's mother, is given a restricted Regency until Uriel VI reaches the age of majority. The Elder Council retains the real power, as they had since the days of Katariah.
