Why did the calendar start with the birth of Jesus Christ?

The Roman abbot Dionysus Exiguus devised the new Christian calendar in 533, but he never intended it to start on the birth of Jesus. He knew that it was impossible to say when Jesus was born, but he knew, or thought he knew, when Herod died. So, he chose to begin his Christian calendar on the year of Herod's death, and he based this on the reign of the Roman emperor Augustus. Unaware that Augustus only adopted that name four years after his reign began, going by his birth name of Octavius until then, Exiguus commenced his calendar just 4 years too late.
