It's not a brilliant question you haven't said what scale you're looking at - Cosmic, Geologic, etc,

Geological time is divided as follows:

  1. Hadean 800 million years
  2. Archean 1300 million years
  3. Proterozoic 1958 million years
  4. Phanerozoic 542 million years
    1. Paleozoic 291 million years
    2. Mesozoic 184.5 million years
    3. Cenozoic 66.5 million years
      1. Cretaceous
        1. Paleocene
        2. Eocene
        3. Oligocene
      2. Paleogene
      3. Neogene
        1. Miocene
        2. Pliocene
      4. Quaternary
        1. Pleistocene
        2. Holocene

The Earth is over 4.5 billion years old, We live in the Holocene Epoch of the Quatenary Period of the Cenozoic Era of the Phanerozoic Eon
