The Colonial Age (often shortened into CA) is the 7th era in Forge of Empires. It is preceded by the Late Middle Ages and followed by the Industrial Age. This era includes eight provinces to conquer: Narcien, Lavignon, Troulope, Lombardeaux, Deuxerres, Varseilles, Pisterrac, and Haulenois

The CA questline is also the last one to use the old world map, which has been in use since the Bronze Age.

This age is at the time when Europe, especially France was being gripped with revolutionary sentiments. In particular, the questline follows the trail of the French Revolution. The province leaders Louis XXI and Sophie Antoinette are a similarity to the actual Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Overall, this age follows a time of change, of revolution and of the famous quote "Let them eat cake!"

Trivia

• The Colonial Age is usually synonymous with the Age of Discovery, the Age of Exploration, or the Age of Sail. This period covers the nearly 300 years between Columbus' voyage in 1492 and the French Revolution, culminating near the turn of the 18th century.
• European explorers, such as Hernán Cortés, Juan Ponce de León, Francisco Pizarro, and Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, explored the "New World" during this time.
• In the late 18th century, tensions in British North America led to the American Revolution. This historical event inspired ideals of freedom and justice, and directly inspired the people of France to wage a revolution against its monarchy. The French Revolution started in 1789 and finished in 1799.
• As the Colonial Age is the last age of the first map, the storyline does not mention any historical parallels in the Americas, as the North American map is reserved for the Industrial Age.
