Timeline of Events in Earth-10

The following is a timeline of **Earth-10**. The events of this reality *mostly* follows that of canon until the shatterpoint, where significant divergences begin to occur in the timeline.

## Measuring Time

Since the discovery of the history of shinobi, historians have divided the measurement of time into **Prehistory**; **Before the Common Era (BCE)**, which consists of everything recorded to have happened before the arrival of the Ōtsutsuki Clan; and the **Common Era (CE)**, consisting of everything that happened after the arrival of the Ōtsutsuki Clan.

## Timeline

### Prehistory

* **Millions of Years Ago**
	+ Dinosaurs roamed the planet.
	+ Dinosaurs were made extinct by a meteor impact.
	+ Humans evolve and begin to walk upright.

### Before the Common Era (BCE)

* **Thousands of Years Ago**
	+ Shibai Ōtsutsuki obtains godhood by consuming multiple Chakra Fruits and invents shinjutsu.

### Common Era (CE)

#### Before Shinobi Period

* **1 CE**
	+ **Fixed Point: Kaguya and Isshiki Ōtsutsuki arrive on Earth.**
	+ Isshiki plants the God Tree, which grows in the blood-saturated soils of Earth due to humanity's constant warfare.
	+ Kaguya turns on Isshiki, nearly killing him, and forcing him to possess Jigen.
	+ Kaguya devours the Chakra Fruit of the God Tree.
* **Sometime After 1 CE**
	+ Kaguya quells humanity's wars with the power she obtained from the God Tree and ruled the planet.
	+ Kaguya gives birth to Hagoromo and Hamura Ōtsutsuki, the first humans naturally born with chakra.
	+ Kaguya merges with the God Tree to recreate a Ten-Tails and reclaim her chakra. She is stopped by her sons and sealed away, with the newly created moon being her sealing stone.
	+ Black Zetsu is born out of Kaguya's will just before her sealing.
* **Many Years After 1 CE**
	+ Hagoromo creates Ninshū and begins to connect humanity together by dispersing chakra among them.
	+ Hagoromo has two sons, Indra and Asura Ōtsutsuki.
	+ Hagoromo names Asura the successor to Ninshū, angering Indra (who has been manipulated by Black Zetsu), and begins a bitter conflict between the two brothers.

## Variations from *Naruto* Canon

The **shatterpoint** of the tenth universe is that Madara Uchiha is chosen to be the First Hokage, in accordance with Hashirama Senju's original plan. Because of this decision, the animosity for the Uchiha clan diminishes substantially within Konoha, and the events of *Naruto* occur very differently. The known alterations to the canon timeline caused by this shatterpoint include (in the order they occur):

1. The cycle of reincarnation between Indra and Asura Ōtsutsuki ends 80 years earlier than it did in canon due to Madara and Hashirama resolving their differences.
	* Black Zetsu's plan is foiled once Madara and Hashirama die and Kaguya Ōtsutsuki is never resurrected.
2. Without hatred towards the Uchiha clan as a fundamental aspect of Konohagakure, the Uchiha Clan Massacre never takes place.

## Variations Unrelated to the Shatterpoint

In addition to the significant changes to events as a result of the shatterpoint, a number of other differences set the tenth universe apart from *Naurto* canon. These events are not considered shatterpoints, either because they do not significantly alter Masashi Kishimoto's timeline or because they occur after the shatterpoint when the timeline was already changing rapidly. They include:

* The birth and existence of numerous characters and locations not attested to in canon (i.e., Ryun Uchiha).
