1. Classic Period
2. Golden Age
3. Golden Era
4. Milieu 1100
5. Milieu 1116
6. etc.

Description (Specifications)

It is an age of building excitement as the Third Imperium hits its apogee, its highpoint before it leads to one of two possible outcomes:

1. Second Civil War & Rebellion leading to the assassination of the Emperor, depicted in MegaTraveller and many other versions and publications.
2. Imperium Eternal depicted in many GURPS Traveller products

Both Timelines later rejoin before the Galaxiad occurs.

History & Background (Dossier)

Most of the original Classic Traveller adventures and supplements were set during the year 1105. Many of the original periodicals dated their events and storylines within the years clustered around this year on the Imperial Calendar.

• Milieu 990 just precedes it and sets many events culminating in this later period. Many of the current events for 1105 depends on the events from 990 such as the Solomani Rim War.

Assassination or More Third Imperium?

The assassination of the Emperor occurs in the year 1116 by most reckonings although the GURPS Traveller line created an alternative timeline. Fans sometimes argue some of these points.
