The be-all and end-all for many Gundam fans, this is the continuity of the original Mobile Suit Gundam and its follow-ups. The most popular and most dominant of the Gundam timelines, it’s where the bulk of the franchise is set, from the original show all the way to last year’s movie Hathaway.
The Universal Century is defined by the rise of the Earth Federation—the unified governmental power on a post-space-expansion Earth being ravaged by climate change, wealth disparity, and population crises—and its conflicts with various factions of interstellar colonial secessionists. The most notable, of course, is the “One Year War” in U.C. 0079 between Earth and the Principality of Zeon—a group of the farthest-flung space colonies rebelling against Earth’s control, usurped by the rise of the fascist Zabi family. This is the conflict in the original Mobile Suit Gundam that sees mechanized infantry, Mobile Suits, begin to dominate warfare, and a brutal event that sees half of all humanity made extinct in the opening months of the war that virtually every other story set here will deal with the lingering generational ramifications of.
