The 1st millennium CE was the millennium following the 1st millennium BCE and spanned the years 0 to 1000. It consists of the Late Antiquity, the Early Age, and some of the High Age. The world population rose more slowly than during the preceding millennium, from about 200-230 million in the year 0 to about 350 million in the year 1000.

In Oranland, the 1st century saw the rise of the Alarican Empire followed by its gradual decline from the 4th to 5th century. The second half of the millennium is characterised as the Early and later High Age and is marked by the formation of Terranity, the construction of Neo-Odius, and the emergence of modern democracy.

In Hesterath, the first millennium was a time of great societal, cultural and technological advances, notably the Plecanist Golden Age. In the Hesterath lowlands, the Zhang is replaced by the Wei. In Horaito, a sharp increase in population followed when farmers' use of iron tools increased their productivity and crop yields resulting in the emergance of a centralised state known as Eakogawa. The millennium also saw the rise and fall of the Juksan Empire which conquered most of central and southern Hesterath and some of northern Oranland before its collapse around 700. This led to the rise of many independent states notably the Haserum Empire which ushered in the Plecanist Golden Age in the late 8th century. In Plevapotamia, the first millennium saw the deaths of approximately 25 million people, factors include the Iserlonian Civil War, Juksan conquest of Iserlon, and the Orenetian Period.

In the Domicas, the first millennium was a period of enormous growth. XXX grew into a metropolis and the Quadran Federation dominated central Domica until 982. In South Domica, the Atontec culture flourished, producing impressive metalwork and some of the finest pottery seen in the ancient world. In North Domica, the Teraphe culture rose at the beginning of the millennium in the XXX river valley. Numerous cities were built; XXX, the largest, was based in present-day XXX.

In Naphtora, numerous cultures emerges throughout the millennium. The trans Megalimos slave trade spans the Megalimos and the east coast by the 9th century.
