Although speculation, the presence of the FX-45 pistol in-game (a weapon produced from late 2012 onwards) provides a solid starting pointing as to when the outbreak occurred.
The start of the outbreak and the divergence from the ARMA Universe can be likely considered to have occurred sometime during or after 2013. Another key reference is the flags of the various factions that took part in the Chernarussian Civil War of 2009, the CDF, ChDKZ, and NAPA. The four islands referenced are Malden, Everon, Kolgujev, and Sahrani. The most notable reference is the advertisement billboards, with at least four of them sporting the names of prominent islands set throughout the ARMA series. This is evident by a variety of in-game references found throughout Chernarus. DayZ's lore is set in an alternate timeline of the ARMA Universe (Officially titled as the Armaverse Timeline). The exact location of Chernarus is unknown, but it can be assumed it takes place somewhere in Caucasia based on the satellite imagery from the ARMA 2 launch trailer. Geographically, Chernarus is sandwiched between the Russian Federation to the North of the Black Mountains and Takistan to the West of the Svetlaya River.
