The Continuity in Greater Detail

This page refers to the entirety of the Zarvok Federations Continuity, as this page will describe the lore in much greater detail. The continuity will be described in two separate ways: Timeline and Retcon, and how it differs from the Archie Sonic and Game universes, and how it's also similar.

***Quick warning: Spoilers for the entire Zarvok Continuity await below. If you don't care about spoilers, then you may proceed. Otherwise, get off of this page immediately!***

## Timeline

The timeline of the Zarvok Federations continuity begins once the Xorda attacks Earth (present-day Mobius) in the perspective of the reader, and still continues on in the present day and future. The timeline will be described simply, and will only list canon events. Events that have occurred via roleplay or story with be listed with Heading 2 text. Keep in mind that a lot of the events that occurred in both the Archie Comic and Game lores may not be listed in the timeline. This doesn't mean that those events haven't happened (although there is a chance that they didn't), it's just there are too many events to list all at once in the timeline and that it's hard to keep up.

## Retcon

Retcon wise, there are many similarities and differences of that when comparing to the Archie Sonic continuity and the Zarvok Federations continuity. The Retcon will specify the changes and additions of both character/location-wise and event-wise.

### Character/Location-Wise

[Note: Looking to revise this in a different format]

#### The Zarvok Federations

Let's get the big one out of the way first. The Zarvok Federations in the continuity is, obviously, one of the biggest differences from the Archie Sonic continuity. The continuity itself focuses primarily on the many ventures and events that the Zarvok Federations undergoes. Along with the Zarvok Federations being the focus of the series, so too are the main characters that reside in the faction. Although while the Federations is the primary focus of the continuity, official characters such as Sonic the Hedgehog aren't left in the dark (more on that later). As the Zarvok Federations makes its journey through the galaxy, it provides for a much more greater perspective of the galaxy that Sonic the Hedgehog resides it, as they encounter new faces and places... and familiar ones as well. Fan-made locations such as (but not limited to) Tashiyki Village, the citystate of Verdandes/Genesis City, and Planet Xervedia exist in the continuity.

#### Post-Super Genesis Wave Characters

Going to get this one out of the way as well before we move onto everything else. Simply put, the history-altering wave that had transpired during the events of Worlds Collide... simply doesn't happen. Now this means that Eggman simply doesn't think to rewrite history into his own image, or he did attempt it but ultimately failed, unlike in the original timeline. As for content exclusive in the Super Genesis Wave, they aren't ignored. In the Zarvok Federations continuity, content from both the Pre and Post Super Genesis Wave timelines are combined into one, along with the fanon aspects (such as the Zarvok Federations), though most of the events that happened prior to 3237 are from the Pre-Super Genesis Wave, and even allow some characters from the Light Mobius timeline to be implemented in the lore's later years (such as Skye Prower). Characters as (but not limited to) Relic the Pika, Sonar the Fennec, and many others are implemented.

#### Sonic and Co: The Freedom Fighters

Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends are actually still made relevant in the lore of the Zarvok Federations. As in, they aren't casted aside like some shadow and instantly forgotten, or they aren't completely outmatched by any of the fanon aspects implemented into the lore. In fact, these characters will always have a place in the lore, as they're welcomed in with open arms, as well as with other official characters (such as Nicole the Holo-Lynx and Rotor Walrus). Characters from both the Pre and Post Genesis Wave timelines (such as Shard the Metal Sonic and Gemerl) are also present in the lore. Locations such (but not limited to) as Freedom HQ, the Badlands, and many more are also implemented in the lore as well

#### Dr. Eggman and the Eggman Empire

Much like Sonic and his friends, Dr. Eggman is also still made relevant in the lore: not being ignored and not completely outmatched by fanon aspects. The Eggman Empire itself also uses automatons from some of the sonic games, such as the Egg Gunners and Egg Pawns (both Pre and Post Sonic Forces), and the Empire still optimizes Swatbots and it's other models (such as the Eggswats and Combots) in it's ranks. Various other badniks are also in play, as well as the Egg Bosses that reside in each continent and regions (such as Mordred Hood and Conquering Storm). There are even some that previously held the title of Grandmaster in the Pre-Genesis Wave Timeline (such as Lien-Da, Beauregard Rabbot, and Hugo Brass) that now currently hold the title of Egg Boss in the lore, allowing for more familiar faces to be seen. Characters from the Iron Dominion are also present in the lore as well (such as the Iron Queen) as they too serve as members of the Eggman Empire, along with the Jackal Squad and it's leader: Infinite.

#### United Federation and Guardian Unit of Nations

The United Federation has a key-part within the lore of the Zarvok Federations, along with its military branch: the Guardian Unit of Nations, making them more relevant. G.U.N in the lore, is significantly stronger than that of its original counterpart, as they have garrisons on all continents of Mobius, as they are now on par with Dr. Eggman. As for the key part they played within the lore, the G.U.N Downunda Garrison served as the first antagonist within the lore, during the Zarvokian Revolution War, as said garrison was eventually taken down by both the Federations and G.U.N (as the garrison itself had gone rogue). Afterwards, G.U.N and the United Federation are now seen as protagonists in the lore. Characters such as Hope Kintobor, Shadow the Hedgehog, and E-123 Omega also reside in the faction as well.

#### Black Arms, Xorda, and Bem

Since the Zarvok Federations lore shows a greater perspective of the galaxy it resides in, the Black Arms, Xorda, and Bern are no exception from having its own place in the lore. For the three races, they continue from where they left off before the Super Genesis Wave occurs - The Bem are still stranded on the planet of Argentium while the Xorda and Black Arms are at war with each other. However, eventually Black Doom would come to Mobius to exact his business, while Black Death and Eclipse deals with the Xorda during his absence - leading to the events similar to that in Shadow the Hedgehog (except now with Zarvokian Involvement). As such, the Xorda and Black Arms are seen as antagonists in the lore, with the Bem being protagonists. Due to the Battle of Argentium resulting in a Zarvokian victory, the Bem survive the conflict and thrive, while the Xorda and Black Arms are eventually eradicated. Obviously Argentium exists in the lore, while

#### Republic of Acorn, it's Council, and its Residents

The Kingdom of Acorn in the Zarvok Federations lore still reforms to the Republic of Acorn, and the Council of Acorn is still implemented as it's ruling government. Ixis Naugus still comes in to take the crown for himself, replacing Elias Acorn as king and becoming to figurehead of the council. Since the Super Genesis Wave hasn't occurred yet, the Council of Acorn and the republic continues from where it left off, as well as the characters that live in the Republic (such as Sir Charles the Hedgehog, Amadeus Prower, etc.), as well as the former Royal Acorn family, and the Secret Freedom Fighters.

#### The Metarex and "Seedrians"

Once again, since the Zarvok Federations lore provides a greater perspective of the galaxy it resides in, the Metarex also has a place with the lore, even though the Metarex reside in the Sonic X anime. Although currently it is unknown when the Metarex will reveal themselves in the lore, they will eventually appear as a major antagonist within the lore. With the Metarex being in the lore, so too are the Seedrians. The difference with the original anime and the lore counterpart is that the ship carrying the female Seedrians manage to get to Mobius [whether intentionally or accidentally] before the Metarex hunt their ship down, allowing for characters such as Galaxina and Earthia to survive. Locations such as (but not limited to) planets Aqurius, Obidon, Secco, and Green Gate also exist in the continuity.

#### Moebius: Anti-Mobius

To make a long explanation short: Moebius also exists within the Zarvok Federations continuity, as the continuity has roots within the Archie Sonic universe. As such, events such as the Moebian Great Peace occurred, while characters such as Scourge, Fiona Fox, the Suppression Squad, and Dr. Ivo Kintobor exist as well. Interestingly enough, Moebian variations of the characters residing in the Zarvok Federations (i.e Anti-Adex, Anti-Joshua, etc.) also exist, though it is currently unknown when they'll make an appearance, if they do at all. Anti-Locations of the planet also exist.

#### The Sonic Fandom

The last thing to discuss about the Zarvok Federations lore is how the lore interacts with the Sonic Fandom itself. The Zarvok Federations co-exists with other lores within the fandom as crossovers, while with other lores they are simply not-existent. The coexistence with other lores are very few in number, however each lore that co-exists makes an impact on the lore of the Federations, whether it be minor or significant, with said crossovers being welcomes entirely, as they add more characters and even locations to the continuity.

### Event-Wise

This will explain the changes of any event that occurred in the Archie Comics, as well as possibly some in the Games and the Sonic X Anime.

#### The Great War

In the Zarvok Federations continuity, the Great War occurs five years earlier than in the original Archie timeline. Most of the events in the Great War however, still happen, with the recapture of Mobotropolis being explained as done with the efforts of a special forces division: Task Force Sentrium. Dr. Eggman is still arrested for wanting to use live Overlanders to test his Ultimate Annihilator. However, Snively Robotnik accompanies his uncle for assisting in his endeavors, and rather than be rescued by Jules and Sir Charles Hedgehog in the Badlands, the two are freed from an assault on the facility they were held captive in, the two being freed by Adex Zarvok Burns as he was searching for his wife. Jules is mortally wounded at the very same facility, though he is taken to safety and later on roboticized. The Kingdom of Acorn still wins the war via a duel between Overlord Charlemagne and King Maximillian, though Adex also duels with Colin Kintobor, both Adex and Maximillian emerging victorious. Some of the Overlanders still leave the planet in search of a new planet (only to return 16 years later), and instead of starting his coup a little bit after the war, Dr. Eggman waits until 3225, specifically the day Tails was born, before launching his coup.
