Universal Century (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Universal Century is the original timeline of the Gundam anime metaseries. The official English name U.C. (abbreviation of Universal Century) is often used instead in recent production like MS Igloo and Master Grade model instructions and official pages (i.e. www.gundam.info).The Universal Century timeline starts with the migration of humanity to populate space, after construction of the first space colony at Side 1 was completed.By far the most proliferative background universe, Universal Century makes up the dominating majority of the entire franchise. While many new Gundam stories are told in their own parallel universe with independent timelines, giving them a greater degree of creative freedom, the original U.C. storyline continues to be extremely popular for a variety of reasons.
