The Disney Timeline and The Disney Movie Map (Part 1)

Today, we will be talking about The Disney Timeline and The Disney Movie Map!

"Hold on, hold on! Disney timelines and Disney maps are everywhere on the Internet! I could just search them up myself!" I hear some of you guys exclaim.

I know, I know, I am fully aware that Disney and Pixar timelines and maps do exist. However, I am also taking into account other films that have been excluded from the animated canon.

Nonetheless, do note that I will, for simplicity, exclude:
• package films;
• war-time flims;
• Fantasia films;
• Planes films;
• Disney Fairies films; and
• Mickey Mouse Christmas films

To view the full Disney Timeline that I have created, as well as my version of the Disney Movie Map, please download the Excel file ("Disney_Timeline.xlsx") or view the Google map ("Disney_MovieMap") which are both found in a Google Drive folder. You can access the folder via tinyurl.com/CFDTnMM.

Now, let's start off with the first 6 movies of The Disney Timeline!
  
 
Dinosaur (2000)
When? - Cretaceous Period
Where? - Unknown, most likely Pangea

Dinosaur was the very first movie that took place in the Disney universe. It's obvious. Period.
  
   
The Good Dinosaur (2015)
When? – Post-Cretaceous Period
Where? - Unknown

The Good Dinosaur took place after the meteor that supposedly caused the extinction of the dinosaurs missed the Earth, thus placing it after the Cretaceous period. However, I could not decide on the location as the land on Earth had already started breaking up into continents.
  
  
Brother Bear (2003)
Brother Bear 2 (2006)
When? – Post Ice Age
Where? – Arctic North America

According to the Disney Wiki, Brother Bear and Brother Bear 2 are set in a post ice-age North America. Also, the humans in Brother Bear and Brother Bear 2 were Inuit people, who inhabited the Arctic region in North America.
  
   
Hercules (1997)
When? – 1294BC
Where? – Ancient Greece

According to Greek mythology, Hercules (Heracles) was born in 10 February 1286BC. Therefore, I placed the film 18 years after Hercules' birth, 1268BC to be exact. Despite the name "Hercules" is of Roman origin, all aspects of Hercules points to it taking place in Ancient Greece, and not Ancient Rome.
   
   
The Sword in the Stone (1963)
When? – 5th century
Where? – England

King Arthur came to power in England during the late 5th century and the early 6th century. Hence, The Sword in the Stone would have taken place in the 5th century England when Arthur was younger.
