What year would it be 31688 years ago?
Asked on 4 Jan 2013 AD, so 31688 years ago it would have been:2013 AD - 31688 = -29675 ADNegative AD dates are BC, but when Dionysius Exiguus devised the AD/BC calendar (in the year 247 Anno Diocletiani, which he called 531 AD) zero (0) had not been invented, so 1 AD was preceeded by 1 BC, so -29675 AD becomes 29,676 BC.

What is mean by before Christ and what is the last year for before Christ?
If you're talking about BC and AD, BC has always been refered to as Before Christ. AD has always been refered to as After Death. Both these statements are wrong. Christ Jesus was born around 4 BC and died around 37 AD. AD actually stands for the Latin phrase Anno Domini meaning "in the year of our Lord". I hope this answers your question.Ignoring the question of exactly when Christ was born, the last year BC was 1 BC and the first year AD was AD 1. There is no zero year in either system. The years just go ... 5 BC, 4 BC, 3 BC, 2 BC, 1 BC, AD 1, AD 2, AD 3, AD 4, AD 5 ...Each century AD starts on a 01 year (e.g. 1901) and ends on a 00 year (e.g. 2000), the given example was the beginning and ending of the 20th century. Each century BC starts on a 00 year and ends on a 01 year, as the years count backward.
BC and AD w what do these dates mean?
bc= before christ ad= anno domini ( the year of our lord)
What was the year before 100 BC?
100 BC is a year. Right now it is 2010 AD.
What was the period in time between BC and AD called?
There was no period between BC and AD. One followed the other. After 1 BC was the year 1 AD. There was no year zero or anything else between BC and AD. BC is Before Christ. AD is Anno Domini, the time of Our Lord, so basically from when he was born. So there is no time period in between before he was born and when he was born.
