In 1999, the world was preparing for the New Year's party of a lifetime. The year number in the Gregorian calendar was about to tick over to 2000, supposedly ushering in not only the 21st century but also the 3rd millennium CE. However, the party was held one year too early—it should have been on January 1, 2001. CE, BCE, AD, BC,: What's the differ...
It all boils down to the question: was there a year 0? Let's first assume that year BCE 0 existed. This would mean that: 1. 1 full year would have passed at the end of year 0 since the beginning of the year count; 2. 2 years would have passed at the end of year 1; 3. and so on... This means that 2000 years, two full millennia, would have passed at ...
Anno domini, the year numbering system (calendar era) we use today, was devised by a 6th-century monk named Dionysius Exiguus, who lived in an area now part of Romania and Bulgaria.

As a consequence, 1. 1 full year had passed at the end of year 1; 2. 2 years had passed at the end of year 2; 3. and so on... So, at the end of year 1999, as people were celeb...
Of course, the big fuss over the year 2000, or Y2K, was understandable from a psychological point of view. The human brain is predisposed to highlight “big numbers”—a tendency psychologists call the round number bias. It causes us to throw extra-glamorous parties on our 20th, 30th, or 40th birthdays and to celebrate milestones like the 1000th like ...
Even people celebrating the beginning of the new millennium on the correct date must contend with the fact that, in astronomical terms, there was nothing special about this particular event. A year on Earth is defined as the time it takes Earth to complete an orbit around the Sun. This is called a solar or tropical year. Solar calendar systems, suc...
In fact, looking at other calendar systems, it becomes clear how ambiguous year numbers are. For example, year 2001 marked the beginning of the 3rd millennium in the Gregorian calendar only. Other calendars, such as the Jewish calendar, the Islamic calendar, and the Hindu calendar, use completely different year numbers. So, while the Gregorian cale...
