Looking at the card slash sequences, we can see that the slashed card is split on 3 planes: the digital, ''the analog'' (represented by the graphs) and the real world. The series shows the digital world and the real world, but for brief moments (like in the very first episode) it also shows the analog world. This world is more important that it seems, because it's there where digimon's raw materials were collected from the real world's atmosphere, since they had to come from somewhere and air does contain all the basic elements necessary for life like carbon and oxygen ([=CO2=]), hydrogen (H20), nitrogen, and others in trace amounts.

The reason these elements are collected is because this world is essentially composed of energy, to a level that ionizes the air. This would explain the behavior of the fog that sets in when a digimon realizes, namely it not dispersing (since it's particles are attracted to the digimon) and it dissipating without a trace over time after having discharged (which happens faster the bigger or the more digimon there are) or after the digimon that attracted it is killed. Also, keep in mind that digimon do not form instantly, and thus the digimon that just realized is the one that is most unstable/possesses the most charge.

The most ancient event mentioned in the series is the creation of the D-Reaper program in the 1970s, which in the real world did happen but it was [[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute simply called Reaper]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creeper_virus was only used to delete one of the very first virus]], [[{{Foreshadowing}} the Creeper.]] As such, the program had to able to distinguish between a normal program and a virus (even if in a rudimentary process).

While in the real world nothing else came of that, in the world of Digimon Tamers it was also able to integrate the useful abilities of the deleted programs and therefore remained idle in the dimension based on the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARPANET ARPANET]], '''not''' an early digital world.

The next most important event was the formation of the Wild Bunch/Monster Makers, who devoted themselves to the development of artificial intelligence in the late 80's. While their efforts would ultimately result in the creation of the digimon, they were far from being the only ones. This second period of booming research [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Www (which led to the development of the world wide web)]] was what triggered the awakening of the D-Reaper onto the digital world, in other words giving it the ability to cross between different dimensions for the first time.
