Preface

I still remember the evening after watching Frozen for the first time, when the
Arendelle castle slipped away from my sight, I had a mixed feeling and kept asking
myself, “is this the end?” I could hardly believe that because Frozen seems to be a
realistic world around me, but the only thing I could do that time was to watch the
movie again.
Now, after production for nearly eight years, there has been a large number of
events occurred within Arendelle, some of which are even closely linked. It was
when I finished reading Dangerous Secrets that this feeling grew stronger than ever,
and I realized the necessity to summarize all the correlations between events, so early
the year, I bantered with a friend, FrozenHeart, also a Frozen fan full of compassions
and resources, saying the main plot of Frozen series has spanned three generations
and almost five decades, which was half of the Cien años de soledad in form.
Fortunately, he had similar intentions and we began cooperating instantly.
Initially, my intention was to consider those important works only, while
FrozenHeart suggested referencing all the official documents. Thus, the annals took
more than half a year to accomplish. But the time is well worth it as the connections
between different events went far beyond my expectations. And I’m eager to share
my findings with Frozen fans all around the world.
For example, Arendelle and Arenfjord was actually named after the ancient
legendary Aren, who was said to free the sun in an endless night both in
Arendellian’s and Huldréfolk’s tales. Besides, Grand Pabbie was not the only troll
with known name.
For a long time, I’ve seen quite some people having difficulties choosing official
books to buy. Here, I recommend to firstly watch the three shorts: Frozen Fever,
Olaf’s Frozen Adventure and Once Upon A Snowman. Then, three books are essential
to gain a relative clear understanding of Frozen world: Forest of Shadows,
Dangerous Secrets and Unlocking Arendelle.
For those who desire to dig into Frozen world or write fanfictions while have no
time to go through all these books, I hope this chronicle can provide help.
In fact, the article is not simply a summarization of different books, but mainly
focus on the correlations between distinct events and how to organize them logically,
which is the quintessence of this work.
Once more, thanks for my friend, FrozenHeart, as he provided me with lots of
literature and whenever I got into troubles, he was willing for discussion. I cannot
expect to accomplish this work in such quality without his help.
This article is just a start since future publications may certainly contribute more
valuable information to the chronicle. If you find mistakes or have any ideas about
this chronicle, please contact us and we will highly appreciate all your comments and
opinions. Together, we can make a better chronicle for Arendelle!

Introduction

This section mainly elaborates writing methods and logics of the chronicle, such
as rules of various colors and symbols, which helps you have a better understanding
of the contents.
Based on two animated movies and various shorts and literature taken into
account, this article summarizes the chronicle centered on Arendelle, which begins
with prehistorical legends and myths and then in the main content, spans about half a
century from the reign of King Runeard (or more specifically, the completion of
Arendelle Castle) to Anna's coronation symbolizing a new age of unity between
Arendelle and Northuldra.
It has been nearly eight years since the premiere of Frozen, while fans have
always kept a high enthusiasm for it, bringing the works of Frozen series vast, among
which including even quite a few of official publications. The quality of these works
varies, making them distinct in canonity. Therefore, we first selected a total of
forty-four documents that can be adopted, and divided them into three tiers according
to the canonity of their contents:
The first-class literature is the four animated movies and shorts created directly
by filmmakers. Undoubtedly, their contents should be considered as being conclusive,
and they will be written in black in the text. For brevity, the source of each event in
the main text are indicated after certain events in abbreviated form. The names and
abbreviations of the first-class literature are listed in the following table: (Same for
the second- and third-class literature)

Name Abbreviation
Frozen F
Frozen Ⅱ FⅡ
Frozen Fever FF
Once Upon A Snowman OUAS

Second-class literature refers to those works that were reviewed or participated


by filmmakers, in the form of videos, novels, audio tracks, etc., but there are two
exceptions: one is Unlocking Arendelle, of which I haven’t found the evidence of
official review, whereas its contents are closely connected with both first- and
second-class literature; the other is Google Assistant Frozen Stories, which involves
the contents of Frozen, Frozen Ⅱ, Forest of Shadows, etc. These stories logically
contribute to Frozen series, especially the ancient history of Arendelle. Besides, these
tracks are dubbed by the original cast, so it’s reasonable to regard these two works as
the second tier. Second-class literature is written in orange in the text.

~ 6 ~
Name Abbreviation
The Art of Frozen AF
The Art of Frozen Ⅱ AF Ⅱ
Frozen II The Official Movie Special FⅡ OMS
Frozen Ⅱ Deluxe Junior Novelization FⅡ JN
Olaf’s Frozen Adventure OFA
Forest of Shadows FOS
Dangerous Secrets DS
Unlocking Arendelle UA
Myth A Frozen Tale MAFT
Google Assistant Frozen Stories GS

Third-class literature refers to those works that are produced officially but have
not been reviewed formally, and whose content and logic do not conflict with those
of the first- and second-class literature. Publications that do not meet any of the above
conditions, such as Conceal, don’t feel and Ralph Breaks the Internet, as we consider,
can only be counted as spinoffs of Frozen, so their contents should not be accepted.
Besides, documents that have the same contents as higher-level literature are not
included as well, like the Golden Book series. Third-class literature is written in blue
in the text. The lists of third-class literature are written in Appendix Ⅲ due to the
large number.
Moreover, some necessary conjectures are included and written in purple. ‘#’ is
used before some events to indicate that their canonity is rather low. You can ignore
them and all the events attached to them (see the following four paragraphs) safely to
not waste time on these trivial matters.
Next, the introduction of methods used for describing events. The article firstly
distinguishes different parts of chronology based on the reign of the king or queen of
Arendelle, as shown in the catalogue. Then, the different events were divided into
three tiers due to their relationship:
The first-tier events represent a collection of a series of specific events or a
period of time. Generally, multiple different events are attached to them. This tier of
events are marked by the arrow (➢).
Events of the second level usually represent specific cases. The events marked
with spades (♠) have a clear chronological order: the event written first occurs earliest,
and the next occurs after it, and so on. On the contrary, there is no clear sequence
among the events marked with diamonds (♦), or it is impossible to determine their
sequence.
Moreover, there are some secondary cases that are logically attached to one case,
which is called third-tier events. These events are marked with hollow spades (♤) or
hollow diamonds (♢). The principle of their time sequence is the same as that of
spades and diamonds.
For cases marked by two symbols under one first-tier event, the cases marked by
adjacent symbols should be taken as a set, and then sort in order with other events
according to the above principles. For example, imagine there are four events with

~ 7 ~
the following form:
➢ A
♦B
♦C
♠D
It means that events B, C, D are attached to A, and that D happens later than B
and C, while the time sequence between B and C is uncertain.
Numerous locations are mentioned in the chronicle, so maps of Arendelle with
different scales are given in Appendix Ⅰ.
This article utilizes two sets of interrelated dating methods. One is the AD
chronology that we use daily, and the other is the FT chronology designed for Frozen.
I set the year of the battle of the dam as the first year of Frozen Timeline (FT 1). And
we know that Frozen happen in July, 1839, so the time of events can be calculated
with double timelines. Check the appendix Ⅱ for the exact method of calculation and
the reason it is introduced.
Proposed by FrozenHeart, I added the section "Primary Events of Arendelle"
before the catalogue, marking the historical periods and significant events of
Arendelle with double timelines for convenient referencing. They are mainly derived
from first-class literature, combined with a few necessary contents from other
literature. If you want to have an overall understanding of Arendelle's history or
analyze the approximate time of an event, this part will be a nice choice.
Wish you an enjoyable read!

Prehistory: Legends & Myths

➢ The Legend of Ahtohallan①

♠ The origin of Ahtohallan & the four spirits (F Ⅱ)


♤ The fifth spirit was born. (MAFT)
(“From a magic as old as glaciers were born the spirits of air, of fire, of water
and of earth. When at peace, we find in them the best of nature. But when enraged,
the wind twists with furious gust. Fire burns all options to dust….” —from Agnarr’s
book: The Secrets of the Magic Makers [UA])
♤ The four spirits kept in balance and created harmony. (MAFT)

♤ Harmony Age (MAFT)

Ancient scroll found in the wreck in F Ⅱ, with Iduna’s handwriting “the end
of ice age; The river found but lost; Magic’s source, Elsa’s source”

① A Frozen fan named Michmh made some promising theories based on those patterns on the
scroll. In short, through association and logical analysis, he deciphered the scroll to show how
Ahtohallan and four spirits were created, and the deductions under the Ice Age are parts of his
analysis. These contents may be just conjectures, but I found them intriguing. If you are interested
in it and want to have an overall look, visit https://tieba.baidu.com/p/6481016234, while translation
may be required.

~ 9 ~
➢ Ice Age

♠ The end of ice age (F Ⅱ)


(*Northuldra began to live in this land.)

♦ The river found (F Ⅱ)


(*Northuldra found Ahtohallan.)

♦ The fifth spirit lost, then four spirits went dormant, leading to the harmony being
broken. (MAFT)
(*Ice melted, creating the dark sea & isolating Ahtohallan.)

♦ The river lost (F Ⅱ)

➢ Saga of Aren

♦ Saga of Aren
♤ A great darkness swept over the land, leaving an endless night. (GS-E①)

♤ Aren succeeded to free the sun and was awarded by the sun with a shining
sword— the Revolute Blade. (GS-E & FOS-C4)
♤ Aren created Arenfjord with the Revolute Blade. (FOS-C4 & GS-E)

♤ When Arenfjord faced a great danger, Aren set out to face it and never came
back.② (FOS-C19)
♤ Aren died in dragon boat with the sword. (FOS-C22)

♦ # Shield maiden Brunhilda defeated giants in the time of giants. (GS-A)

① GS includes four narrators: Elsa, Anna, Krsitoff, and Olaf. Here it means that the narrator was
Elsa. Same for other narrators.
② This is what Huldréfolk’s legends recorded. In Arendellian’s story, the great danger was a
dragon under the sea, and Aren along with the Revolute Blade was swallowed by the dragon.

~ 10 ~
➢ Age of Monarchy①

♦ Wars between many small kingdoms. (GS-K)


♢ King Valdemar lost his kingdom for failing to do his duty. (GS-K)

♦ King Gormix conquered all the surrounding lands. (GS-O)

♦ King Gormix attempted to conquer nature spirits but failed in the end due to the
four powerful spirits: air, fire, water and earth. (GS-O)

(※ “I think the Spirits of Nature had been protecting Arendelle for longer than
we could know.” —Elsa)

① The events under this period seem to be just some trivial legends, but I found that they might
allude to some historical events: after the last ice age, the ancestors of Vikings began to settle in
Scandinavia, and had contacts with the local aborigine Sámi; in the 9th century, Norway was ruled
by many small kingdoms, and conflicts between the kingdoms continued; until 872, Harald Fairhair
won the Battle of Hafrsfjord, marking the unity of Norway. (reference Wikipedia)

➢ Soon after the battle, FT 1 (1808):

♠ Iduna & Agnarr arrived at Arendelle. (F Ⅱ)

♠ Lord Peterson helped Iduna and made her part of Arendelle. (DS-C3)

➢ May,FT 1 (1808):

♠ Peterson allowed Iduna to study in the castle with Agnarr. (DS-C5)

♤ Agnarr & Iduna left Arendelle castle for adventure through secret passageway.

~ 15 ~
♤ Agnarr & Iduna met Oaken.

♤ Agnarr & Iduna found trolls and learned about the truth of Queen Rita from
Grand Pabbie.

♠ Sorenson invented a foolproof test to uncover lies. (DS-C25)

♠ The council of Arendelle planned to make an alliance with kingdom Vassar and

♤ King Nicholas and Princess Runa arrived at Arendelle. (DS-C28)

♤ Iduna left Arendelle for trolls to remove her memories in a snowstorm and had
a dream about her newborn situation. (DS-C32~34)

(*The spirits helped Iduna when she was trapped in the snowstorm, and Iduna’s
dream also had connection with spirits.①)
♤ Iduna revealed the political intrigue conducted by King Nicholas with the help
of Runa. (DS-C38)
♤ Iduna proposed to Prince Agnarr in the way of Northuldra. (DS-C39)

① It’s unlikely that one could recall the scenes at birth so clearly and thoroughly in dreams, and
dreams with spirits are also mentioned in other literatures, such as the Epilogue of FOS and Anna
Elsa and The Secret River, both of which indicate that the spirits actually were not completely sunk
in sleep before F Ⅱ. In other words, it’s probable that four spirits were still “watching” the world.

Kai asked her to rejoin the meeting with visiting dignitaries, and inside Kristoff was
performing daring tricks with Sven after sharing with the dignitaries some facts about
how reindeers could help them cultivate better crops and make traveling throughout
Arendelle easier. (F Ⅱ & FⅡ JN-C2)
(Elsa was the only one who could hear the voice.)
(After hearing the voice, Elsa felt her magic became more active and needed a
place to release the extra energy. [FⅡ JN-C2])

♠ (Afternoon & Evening) People of Arendelle celebrated the harvest festival with
their queen and princess together. (F Ⅱ)

♠ (Night) Anna, Elsa, Kristoff, Sven and Olaf played Charades in the castle library,
in which Elsa was disturbed by the voice once more. (F Ⅱ)

♦ (In the meantime) Anna had a dream about Bruni, Nokk and spirits, then she
woke up. (FOS-Epilogue)

unfrozen.)

♠ Elsa saved Arendelle by soothing the flood with her matured magic. (F Ⅱ)
(※ When the flood is about to overtake Arendelle, Elsa stops it with her magic.
But Elsa and her magic have matured, so rather than just erecting a barrier that then
dissolves the danger, she uses her magic to soothe the water. It's the first time she
uses the unity symbol, which is her signature snowflake but comprised of the
elements, a combination of the two. Elsa is the center that brings it all together in
harmony. It's a climactic moment, but she uses her magic in a way that has a calming
effect after the mayhem. [AF Ⅱ-P134])

♠ Elsa chose to stay in Northuldra and take up the position of the fifth spirit.
Anna, Kristoff, Sven and Olaf returned Arendelle with Mattias and the soldiers.

Maps of Arendelle
This section summarizes several official maps of Arendelle at different scales.
The following two pictures taken from AF Ⅱ (Page 18, 19) depict the overall
view of Arendelle kingdom. The second picture is the vertical view of part of the
village next to the castle and the names of some streets and places are also given.

The next two sketch maps illustrate the landscape of Arenfjord from two
different angles, which can be found on page 27 and page 30 in AF.

~ 32 ~
The map below is from FOS, which provides us with clear landform and names
of places around Arendelle.

The last map as shown on the right is the most comprehensive and accurate
world map of Frozen that I’ve ever seen.
We compared it with Iduna’s travelling map in F Ⅱ and the world map in FF
carefully, and found that it is exactly the combination of them, with the accurate
location of every place including southern isles. All three maps are listed below for
comparison.
However, this picture is from the Internet with unknown source. In the case of
this being a fan edit, please contact us and we are happy to show gratitude to the artist

Calculation of Chronology
The time of Frozen was confirmed in a video in 2019 by the cast of Frozen as
July, 1839. Watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SltK2nvKuI.
The information was given around 4’10’’.
As mentioned in the introduction, I set the year of the battle of the dam as FT 1,
mainly as little about events before that year was known, and most of them were
legends, while after the battle, events that we knew of became relatively clear and
accurate.
In F Ⅱ, we know that it had been 34 years and five months since the battle, so F
Ⅱ happened in FT 35. Moreover, there is 3 years between F and F Ⅱ, thus the date of
Frozen being FT 32. Then, it’s easy to get the year of FT 1 as 1808, thus two sets of
chronology being connected.
Prehistory: the last ice age began at about 18 thousand years and ended around
10000 BC. The legend of Ahtohallan may be far earlier than that. In FOS, it was said
that Aren probably lived before the last ice age, but we cannot get the exact time.
Considering the history of Norway, the age of monarchy may begin at the ninth
century and the Arendelle castle was built no more than 1794, the year when Agnarr
was born.
Agnarr’s birth: on the 34th page of FⅡ MG, it says Agnarr was 14 when King
Runeard died (FT 1), so we can figure out that he was born in BF 13, 1794. We can
also get Agnarr’s birth year from DS-C9~11, “It had been four years since the mist
came down.”
Iduna’s birth: in DS-C34, “I (Iduna) am twelve. Agnarr is fourteen.”, so Iduna is
two years younger than Agnarr.
The reign of Arendelle council: this period mainly references DS. In chapter 8, it
is said Agnarr and Iduna would come back in six months in spring, so the first
adventure took place in Autunm in FT 1. Then, in chapter 9, it has been their eighth
biannual trek, and Iduna began to study windmill with Johan about a year ago, which
is FT 4. In chapter 41, we know that Agnarr and Iduna got married six months after
Iduna’s proposal, when Agnarr had been crowned king in FT 8, 1815. Therefore, the
main events in DS took place from FT 5 to FT 8.
It should be noted that the time in Chapter One of DS is problematic. From
“Primary Events of Arendelle”, it’s easy to figure out that the period between the
time Agnarr encountered Iduna and the shipwreck should be 28 years, not 26 years.
Despite the mistake in time, DS is still an excellent novel and one of my favorite
books of Frozen series.
Elsa’s & Anna’s birth: Elsa was twenty-one in F, and three years older than
Anna. It’s easy to figure out their years of birth.
Kristoff’s birth: on the 1st and 2nd page of Frozen Final Shooting Draft by
Jennifer Lee, we knew Kristoff was at the same age as Elsa. However, on the 26th
page of FⅡ MG, it was said Kristoff was twenty-three years old in F Ⅱ, which is

~ 35 ~
conflicting. We chose to believe the former document and special thanks to iffy, who
pointed out this problem in Discord.
The night before gates’ closing: also from Frozen Final Shooting Draft, page 2,
we knew that Elsa was 8 and Anna was 5 at the night. So, it was FT 19, 1826.
The shipwreck: from F, we know that Agnarr and Iduna died
three years before Elsa’s coronation, which was FT 32, 1839.
However, there’s a serious contradiction here since the map
found in the shipwreck in F Ⅱ was marked ‘1840’, which means
the time of shipwreck shouldn’t be earlier than 1840s. Given that
both of two resources should be taken as first-class documents,
we couldn’t find a proper explanation for this problem. Feel free 1840 in Roman numerals
to contact us if you have any opinions on it.
The crystal ceremony: in JTTL-C2, it is said that there were three days left of
Autumn. According to the usual meteorological season in the northern hemisphere,
the time should be 28th to 30th in November. Besides, since trolls held crystal
ceremony every year and it was the first time of their participation, it probably took
place in the first year of Queen Elsa’s reign, FT 32.
The first Christmas after gates’ opening: obviously, it took place on the
Christmas Day, FT 32 (1839).
Anna’s 19th birthday: it’s also obvious in FF.
True Treasure: TT-Part 1 pointed out that the story began at the sixth
anniversary of Agnarr & Iduna’s death, which is FT 35, 1842.
The Blight: from FOS, we know that the Blight invaded Arendelle about one
month before F Ⅱ. Since F Ⅱ took place three years after F and most people accept
the conjecture that F Ⅱ was in October. Therefore, the blight probably occurred in
September, FT 35.
In fact, more details about Huldrefólk used to be included in the drafts of this
book, but we removed those contents due to practical issues. They may be added in
the second edition.
Anna’s Coronation: no official documents or records ever give any information
of this event up till now.
The unveiling ceremony of sculpture: it was said “as the last autumn leaves fell
from the trees” in FⅡ JN, so Anna’s coronation probably took place in November.

Lists of Third-class Literature


This chronicle drew reference from a total of 30 third-class literature. Though
they are all included in the third tier, their canonity varies. I did not distinguish them
in the text as it would increase the difficulty of reading, and the text has been pretty
colorful. Here, I further divide them into three tiers:
For the six books listed below, although there is no clear evidence of
filmmaker’s review, some parts of their content can be found in the second-class
literature, and they provide a reasonable supplement to Frozen world, so it would also
make some sense even if they are regarded as second-class literature.

Name Abbreviation
A Frozen World AFW
Frozen The Essential Guide FTEG
Frozen Ⅱ The Magical Guide FⅡ MG
Journey To The Lights JTTL
Northern Lights Adventure Notebook NLAN
A Cool Contest ACC

The content of the following five works is relatively independent, but there is
almost no conflict with logic of the main plot and characterizations of Frozen, and
can be treated as extensions.

Name Abbreviation

The last literature including novels and picture books have completely
