Far Futures
Dune
The Spacing Guild forms ~12,000 CE (est.)
Twenty-plus millennia in our future, the Imperium counts years After Guild (A.G.) from the founding of the Spacing Guild. The Guild is placed here around 12,000 CE — no canon dates it against our own calendar — so today lies deep in the Before Guild past.
