It is the year 15 AU - After Unification. So great was the change to the world, the Unification, that time is now marked by it - partially out of reverence for the change, but also partially for sake of common reference. Because those Unified come from many walks of life with many, many different ways of telling time... It began on an auspicious day. Some say that it was caused by a passing meteor. Some say it was triggered by an alien spacecraft in an experimentation. Others, prophetic revelation come to pass. Regardless, the repercussions would rock the Earth for years to come.
