When is each film in the franchise set?

In 1950, the first of seven “Chronicles of Narnia” books written by CS Lewiswhere Lúcia, Edmundo, Susana and Pedro Pevensie, were introduced as children from Earth who discover a magical portal in a wardrobe and end up stopping in a fantastic place, which is inhabited by talking animals and mythological creatures, and is constantly dominated by evil.

From then on, the quartet crosses the portal whenever necessary, so that, guided by the lion Aslan, they can help defeat fake kings and queens and face different and dangerous battles so that the inhabitants of Narnia can have the chance to live in peace. .

The story was also told in theaters, where three of the works were adapted by Walden Media and Disney: “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” (2005), “Prince Caspian” (2008) and “The Pilgrim’s Voyage.” Dawn” (2010), where, just like on the pages, it is clear that each time the Pevensies return to Narnia, there is a different time jump, as there are two lines of time: that of Narnia and that of Earth.

In the book “The Magician’s Nephew”, released in 1955, the story that precedes the Penvensie’s visits to Narnia is revealed by accompanying Digory Kirke (the owner of the wardrobe) as a child, who, accompanied by his friend Polly, ends up discovering that the universe is made up of several different worlds that are connected by a place known as “Forest Between Worlds”, which is full of pools of water that act as portals to other worlds.

After a series of events, in 1900, Digory and Polly end up going through one of the portals and fall into a kingdom where nothing exists, until they hear singing and see the presence of a lion, thus witnessing the creation of Narnia by Aslan, being This is ground zero of this kingdom.

From then on, every time someone from Earth returns to Narnia, it is possible to notice the discrepancy in time in which the kingdom created by Aslan runs compared to the place where the Pevensies live.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

In the film “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”, the Pevensies’ arrival in Narnia is revealed. In the place inhabited by Aslan, a thousand years have passed since Digory saw Narnia born, but, in the Earth’s timeline, only 40 years have passed.

The Pevensies then spend 15 years living in Narnia, ruling as its kings and queens, but when they return home, it is still 1940 and only a moment has passed.

Prince Caspian

A year later, in Earth’s chronology, the events of “Prince Caspian” take place. In Narnia, the return of the Pevensies takes place 2300 years after the creation of the kingdom.

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

In “The Journey of the Dawn Treader”, it is 1942 when Lúcia, Edmundo and Eustáquio return to Narnia, but, unlike the other visits, not that much time had passed in the Kingdom, just a few years, making it impossible to define exactly the equivalence of years of difference between Narnia time and Earth time, since time in Narnia works in a unique way.

However, with the book “The Last Battle”, the title that ends the saga, it is possible to know how much time passed in both places from the beginning to the end of the story, since Narnia is shown 2500 years after its creation, while in Earth It has only been 50 years since Digory first saw Aslan.

Thus, as revealed by the Superinteressante portal, the two timelines are formed as follows:
