The 1st century started in 1 A.D and finished at the end of 99 A.D. The 2nd century started at the beginning of 100 A.D. and so on.
AnswerThe reason is the the 20th century ends at 12:00a.m. on the year 2000. Once it passes, the 21st century begins.hi im Aisha im 12 14 teachers explained it to me and i still don't get it i fell so dumb and the person on top...i still don't getwhy its the 21st century i think it should be th 20th century help me some one any one....
i don't know why its the 21st century but its the same with all the other years aswell because the year 1724 is in the 18th century. its a rule i remember but do not question. its just the way it is.
