AD means "Anno Domini", which is a Latin phrase that translates to "In the year of our Lord". This is a Christian designation meaning 2,010 years since the birth of Jesus Christ, the Lord God in Christianity.

The entire world has adopted the Christian Era calendar for convenience's sake. This is similar to most of the English-speaking world having the days of the week be named after Roman gods like Woden (Wednesday), Janus (January), etc.
