CE, when used with dates, means Common Era or Christian Era - a reference to the calendar first adopted by the Christians, and now by the world as a whole. In that calendar, years were formerly nominated as AD (anno Dominior 'the year of our Lord') or BC, Before Christ. As a universal, world calendar, this is somewhat unsuitable, as Jesus is obviously not recognised as the Lord by Jews, Muslims, Hindus, atheists and so on. Hence, the gradual adoption of CE in place of AD.

How many years is 63bce to 135ce?

To calculate the number of years from 63 BCE to 135 CE, you add the years in BCE to the years in CE. Since there is no year 0, you count 63 years from 63 BCE to 1 BCE and then 135 years from 1 CE to 135 CE, totaling 63 + 135 = 198 years. Therefore, the period from 63 BCE to 135 CE is 198 years.


How years are there between 195 BCE and 755 CE?
