	:::We can estimate that the plot occured between February and November 1868 as Disraeli was the Prime Minister during this period. I don't know when the election occured during this time, but it could be a indication. The Corrupt Practices Act of 1868 received Royal assent the 31 July, so we can assume that the passage of the law and the in-game Lord Cardigan's death occured some days before. We have another clue, in ''A Case of Identity'', Abberline said that the Bank of England was robbed every fiscal quarter, so the memory ''A Bad Penny'' could only occured between March and April or June and July. For me the Queen's Ball happened during the summer as they danced in the gardens.[[User:Francesco75\|Francesco75]] ([[User talk:Francesco75\|talk]]) 09:17, 25 February 2021 (UTC)		:::We can estimate that the plot occured between February and November 1868 as Disraeli was the Prime Minister during this period.

	::::Yes, I did some research when it came to the real-life counterparts of mentioned events and deaths for certain historical figures, too. I was pretty wary using them as references because it doesn't always align with how the game depicts things. For example, the real Lord Cardigan died on March 28, 1868, but given how how the Sequences are organized chronically in ACS, that doesn't make sense, as it meant that Jacob would've killed him a month after arriving London, so using a death date wouldn't work. For me, the most solid indicator would've been the historical date of the Corrupt Practices Act of 1868, since, according to Wikipedia, it was reintroduced in February 1868, which was the same month the Frye twins arrived in London, and because it played a plot point in the game in Sequence 7 since Lord Cardigan tried to have Mr. Disraeli assassinated to prevent it from passing. So, if the Corrupt Practices Act reached royal assent on July 31, 1868, that meant that the day they killed Starrick did happened sometime in June, or very early in July. Which meant that it took the Frye twins about five/six months to liberate London from Starrick. With what little information is given to us in the game and whatnot, that's the most solid estimation we got for the main plot.--'''[[User:NinjaSheik\|<span style="color:#FBEC5D;">Ninja</span>]][[User talk:NinjaSheik\|<span style="color:#87CEFA;">Sheik</span>]]''' 20:07, 25 February 2021 (UTC)		::::Yes, I did some research when it came to the real-life counterparts of mentioned events and deaths for certain historical figures, too.

			== End of Mirage in February 865? ==

			I know that Mirage doesn't give an explicit date after the training in Alamut but we can delimit the ending base on some information:

			-In the database, Alamut is completed in 865. During the last mission, we saw that Alamut is still in construction.

			-Other info, a historical event, or maybe lack, the Siege of Baghdad. It began in March 865 and lasted a year. The last mission in Baghdad can't be further than March 865 as we don't see the siege

			-The presence of Wasif in Baghdad. I know that historically he died in 867. But he had a role in the siege of Baghdad. Historically, the Caliph Al-Musta'in stayed in Samarra until early 865, fearing riots from the Turks. He arrived with Wasif in Baghdad in February 865.

			-Al-Mutazz liberation: historically, Al Mutazz was liberated by the Turks after Al-Musta'in went to Baghdad to recognize him as the caliph.

			-Qabiha negotiated her son's claim to the throne to prevent the civil war. Once again a proof that it happened before the siege. We can imagine that with her death, Al-Mutazz didn't respect the deal provoking the Abbasid civil war and the siege of the city.

			Then, we can assume that the last section of the game occurred during February 865, from the death of Wasif and the confrontation in the Palace.[[User:Francesco75\|Francesco75]] ([[User talk:Francesco75\|talk]]) 12:29, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
