'''The Daria Multiverse''' is an artificial designation created by [[CINCGREEN]] that encompasses not only [[canon]] ''Daria'' episodes but all other [[Dariaverse|''Daria'' fanfiction universes]] as well, when those [[Alternate Universe|alternate realities]] explored in ''Daria'' fanfiction diverge significantly from what is considered [[canon]] ''Daria.''
These universes are designated by a numerical combination (and, only rarely, letters) in the format "Daria-XXX," where XXX is a distinctive number. Since there is no way to automatically designate numbers, the method of assigning numbers is inspired by the late Marvel Comics editor Mark Gruenwald. In [[Marvel Universe]] cosmology, the "number" of a universe is determined by the number of a comic book where that universe made its first appearance

'''Omniverse''': Every reality imaginable, including those created, published, trademarked, or copyrighted by other companies or individuals, covering every fandom.
== Number of Universes in the Daria Multiverse ==
We assume that the Daria Multiverse is a simple subset of the Omniverse, as there may be universes that don't have Daria. However, we will assume that all worthwhile universes have Daria, since, well, Daria's so cool.

== Designations ==
