The first day of the current millennium was Monday 1 January 2001.
Let's do the math: a millenium is 1,000 years. A century is 100. Eight millenium is 8,000 years, divided by 100, you get 80.
Let's work this out together; by the end it will make sense. In a base ten systen (our numbering system based on the typical number of digits humans have on their hands), we begin counting at the number one, completing each set after ten. Like so: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. After each set of ten, we begin again at one; like so: 11, 12, and 21, 22, etc. After ten sets of ten we reach one hundred, repeating the previous method. We do not stop countuing one hundred at 99. Likewise we do not stop counting to one thousand at 999. Now, ten years is a decade, one hundred is a century, and one thousand is a millenium. At ten plus one day of the next year, you have a decade plus one day until 365.25 have passed and you have one decade and one year. The same is true for a century and a millenium. The first century, figuratively began at 1 AD, as did the first millenium. the second century began on 1 January 101 AD and ended 31 December 200 AD. On 1 January 201 AD, the third century AD began. Now extend this to the millenium: 1 January 1 AD to 31 December 1000 AD was the first millenium. 1 January 1001 AD to 31 December 2000 was the second millenium. The third began 1 January 2001 AD. We always begin counting with one.
A millenium is 1000 years long from beginning to end. In terms of the modern calendar, there is no year-long period called year zero, no century zero and no millenium zero. As it is on the standard number line, 'zero' is a point in time on the calendar.So, the year 1 BCE (Before Common Era, or BC for Before Christ) ended on December 31 1 BCE, the day before January 1, 1 AD. That first year started on the previous January 1, 1 BCE.The first century BCE is the entire 100 years ending December 31 1 BCE, and starting January 1 100 BCE.The first millenium BCE then started January 1 1000 BCE and ended December 31 1 BCE.The fourth millenium BCE started January 1 4000 BCE and ended December 31 3001 BCE.It is a little odd. The numbers of the years centuries and millenia go in reverse order, like the number line. But the dates within a given year go forward as usual.
A decade is ten years. a millennium is 1000. There are 100 decades in a millennium.
The new millenium is in 3000 so in 88 years
The beginning of the millenium was actually on January 1, 2001.Many people confuse the millenium begining date, but to put it simply the twentieth century started in year 1901 and ended on December 31, 2000 and was a 100 year increment.January 1, 2001 was the first day of the twenty-first century and the last day of the twenty-first century will be on December 31, 2100.

No. The first bridge was made in rome in 62bc. The bridge is still there
1 millenium = 1,000 yearsAssume 1 year = 365.25 days1 micro-millenium = 0.001 year = 0.36525 day = 8.766 hours(That's 8hours 45minutes 57.6seconds)
S&W S.W.A.T. First Millenium Run is a series of folding knives. S&W stands for Smith & Wesson; S.W.A.T. stands for "Special Weapons And Tactics", which is the moniker American police department paramilitary squads go by. "First Millenium Run" is a designation S&W put on the S.W.A.T. line of knives just before Y2K. The second millenium of the common era was to end, and the third millenium of the era to begin on 1 January 2001, so in 1999, S&W put that designation on knives becaus of the common misconception that the 21st Century/Third Millenium would begin in 2000. It was to be the first run of the new millenium, rather than suggesting that Smith & Wesson was making these knives betwen 1 and 1000 A.D. As I understand it, they're still making these knives (they're very good knives for the money!), they just don't have the "First Millenium Run" etched on the blades any more.
The singular is "millenium"; "millenia" is the plural. "Millenium" means a thousand years.
Millenium ramp is the mode used in the Millenium series in Europe. In Millenium ramp you need to hit 8 bps and then it ramps to 15 bps.
The Millenium Dome in England was build to celebrate the entrance of the 21st century and the start of the second millenium-2000. Hence it was called the "millenium dome"
the day that came after December 31, 1 BC was a new millenium and not zero because there was no zero in milleniums, centuries, decades, or years
