Line 4:
Generally speaking, the events of ''[[The Sims 3]]'' occur the earliest in the in-universe chronology of the series, followed by the events of ''[[The Sims]]'' and then ''[[The Sims 2]]''. For example, [[Bob Newbie]] and [[Betty Newbie|Betty Simovitch]] appear as teenagers in ''The Sims 3'', are married in ''The Sims'', and have had a child and have died by ''The Sims 2''. However, there are several instances (especially with ''The Sims 3'') where events do not seem to agree with the in-universe chronology. There are several player theories which attempt to resolve these discrepancies, as well as some canonical alternatives, such as time travel in ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]''. ''[[The Sims 4]]'' does not follow the in-universe chronology of the series, but does have some returning families, making it seem like an alternative universe.
 
Every one of ''[[The Sims (series)|The Sims]]'' game takes place in [[SimNation]]. In the series, SimNation is shown to be set around the 1990s, 2000s, or possibly even further on. An official interview<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20120605015012/http://thesims2.ea.com/community/bella_interview.php</ref> with Bella Goth shows that she was abducted in the summer of 2004, meaning that ''The Sims 2'' is probably set in or after 2004, placing ''The Sims 3'' in 1954 and ''The Sims'' in 1979. However, if we were to keep consistent with technology and place ''The Sims 3'' in 2009, then ''The Sims'' would be in 2034 and ''The Sims 2'' in 2059. It shows modern, real-life technology such as [[Television|TVs]], [[car]]s, and [[computer]]s - but also some futuristic, advanced technology such as [[Servo]]{{Vgversion|TS:LL}}{{Vgversion|TS2:OFB}} and the [[Teleportation Pad]]{{Vgversion|TS3}}. The locations of ''The Sims'' games could be anywhere in the world, or even in a completely different universe altogether.

===Differences from the original timeline===
* The [[Landgraab family]] moved to [[Oasis Springs]] and didn't stay in [[Sunset Valley]] until [[Malcolm Landgraab (The Sims 3)|Malcolm]] moved to [[Moonlight Bay]] as a [[young adult]].
* In The Sims Freeplay, 34 Sims come together and Makemake the town of Simtown.
* The mother of [[Nina Caliente|Nina]] and [[Dina Caliente]] is [[Katrina Caliente]] and not [[Nighat Caliente]], giving the Caliente twins a slightly different appearance because of their different genetical origin.
* [[Young adult]] [[Nina Caliente|Nina]] and [[Dina Caliente]] are living in [[Oasis Springs]] and not in [[Barnacle Bay]].
* [[Holly Alto]], [[Dustin Broke]] and [[Dirk Dreamer]] all reside in [[Del Sol Valley]], instead of living in the neighborhoods from the games they originally appeared in. All of them also have major genetical differences from their original counterparts and are young adults, rather than [[Teen|teenagers]].
* [[Bella Goth]] was not abducted by aliens.
