What used to be called Anno Domini is nowadays called the Common Era, in order to avoid the specifically Christian association of Anno Domini. They are the same thing.

If an event happened in AD 49 When would this event happened In forty ninth century in the first century 49 years ago or before christ was born?

It would occur in the 49th century, as we are currently in the 2000th century. I am truly hoping that the first answer was a joke, but you never know. We are currently in the 20th Century, so the 49th Century has not happened yet. AD 49 is forty-nine years after Christ was born, in the 1st Century AD, from the Latin anno domini (In the Year of Our Lord). 49 BC is forty-nine years Before Christ. The AD and BC are used whenever confusion may result. Sometimes BC is substituted by BCE (Before the Common Era).
