What is a sequence of events in a narrative?

A sequence of events in a narrative refers to the order in which the story's events unfold. It includes:

1. The exposition: the introduction of characters, setting, and basic situation
2. The rising action: the series of events that create tension and build the story
3. The climax: the peak of the story, when the conflict reaches its most intense point
4. The falling action: the events that follow the climax, leading to the resolution
5. The resolution: the final outcome of the story, where loose ends are tied up and the story concludes.
