The Triassic is a geologic period that lasted about 50.5 million years, starting 251.902 million years ago after the Permian Period ended and ending 201.4 million years ago when the Jurassic Period began. It matters because it was the first and shortest period of the Mesozoic Era, and both its beginning and end were marked by major extinction events that reshaped life on Earth.

Die Trias (altgriechisch τριάς „Dreiheit, Dreizahl“ [Genitiv τριάδος triádos]; Adjektiv meist triassisch, selten auch triadisch) ist in der Geologischen Zeitskala das unterste System bzw. die älteste Periode des Mesozoikums (Erdmittelalter). Sie folgt auf das Perm und geht dem Jura voraus. Die Trias erstreckt sich folglich über den Zeitraum von 251,9 bis 201,3 Millionen Jahren vor heute und dauerte somit 51 Millionen Jahre.
