Notes

1

The timeline for this entry shows the period during which the field was known as the Party Field (following the famous Birthday Party held there in III 3001). The field itself would have been rather older than this, and indeed the fact that the large Party Tree grew within the field implies that it had existed for decades, if not centuries.
