Did the lorebook give any sort of timeline for the more recent events (although I guess it wouldn't have stuff from 3.5)?
This is a question that gets asked a lot, but unfortunately there's no one satisfying answer to give you. "Officially" less than a year has passed. Unofficially, roleplayers all measure the passage of time differently, with most aligning their rp with real time passage.
A more in depth answer can be found in the link below. My post is followed up by one of Anonymoose's and gives a slightly different take on it. Hope this helps!
