Many of the recent Star Wars stories have been set in the New Republic Era, and here's the full timeline of this period to date. Established after the fall of the Empire, the New Republic only lasted around 34 years in-universe. This may have only been a short period, but it's an important one in terms of galactic history.
To understand the New Republic timeline, it's necessary to first grasp the basics of how Star Wars measures the passage of time. Events in the Star Wars timeline are placed in relation to the Battle of Yavin, seen in the first movie (later retitled A New Hope). This means the entire New Republic Era is set ABY ("After the Battle of Yavin"). Here's the full timeline, so far as it's known to date.
