After Colony
After Colony is a timeline corresponding to the construction of the 195 space colonies in Mobile Suit Gundam Wing. It is often abbreviated as "AC." The After Colony timeline takes after the Universal Century in that an Earth Federation-like government (United Earth Sphere Alliance and later the Organization of the Zodiac), retains control of the space colonies and is more oppressive. The colonies struggled for freedom, and the Gundams were built as way of defending the plight of the colonies to escape this oppression.

The After Colony universe is the third most developed, with one TV series, one OVA series and a compilation movie.

Correct Century
The Correct Century is known as Seireki in Japanese. Seireki is a wordplay on the Japanese term for the Common Era (C.E.) Western calendar system (西暦; also pronounced Seireki). Its kanji literally means "Correct Calendar" and is unofficially interpreted as "Correct Century" by English-speaking fans as a send-off to the Universal Century timeline.
