Timeline of events in The Sims series

Every Sims game takes place in SimNation: a country located somewhere in the world in which the games are set. In the series, SimNation is shown to be set around the 1990's, 2000's, or possibly even further on. It shows modern, real-life technology such as TV's, cars, and computers - but also some futuristic, advanced technology such as Servo and the Teleportation Pad. The locations of The Sims games could be anywhere in the world, or even in a completely different universe altogether.

When trying to construct a timeline such as this, order of events often has to be inferred, or outright guessed-at, so the list for any period may not be in exact chronological order. Regardless, here is a (incomplete) timeline of the entire The Sims Series as of February 2010:
