It is a countdown to the birth of your savior. 10 BC is ten years before the birth of christ. 9 BC is nine years before the birth of christ, etc.
In the Christian world the year is 2012 AD. If you are Muslim the year is 1433 AH. The AD and AH originated from Latin and indicate after birth, not after death.
The year 456 BC falls in the 5th century BC. The designation "BC" (Before Christ) counts backwards from the year 1 AD, so the 5th century BC includes the years 500 to 401 BC. Therefore, 456 BC is part of that range.
The years between are the years from 249 BC to 1BC, and 1AD to 249AD, ie. 498 years.
It means Before Christ
BC means before christ. It is a time (I think incorrectly) denoted as the year the christian prophet, Jesus. Any time before this is said to be 1 year before christ, 2 years before christ etc
BC= stands for Befor Christ(count down) AD= stands for nAnno Domini(in the year of the lord) You know when years counted down right? Well that is BC. Then AD is when the years count up. When the abbreviations are the same then subtract(-) if they are different the add(+) 500 BC And 500 AD its 1,000 years! Now do you get it? If you still dont get it.... ASK YOUR TEACHER!
BC = is normally taken to relate to TIME and relates to [Before Christ]BC is normally suffixed to the number of a year, e.g. 500 BC, counted backwards from the nominal year for the birth of Christ.to follow on we are now in the year 2007 AD which refers to "Anno Domini" [Latin] and means in the year of Our Lord; the date used in reckoning dates after the supposed year for the birth of Christ.
B.C. means Before Jesus Christ's Birth. In the B.C. times, time and dates were counted backwards. For example:The prehistoric times were (probably) in the 500,000,000 B.C.,and the A.D. means After Jesus's Death. (this is unfinished text.)
Circa 3150 BC (this date is largely based on working backwards from known dates)
Yes it was. The years BC count backwards to the year 1 BC (12000, 11999, 11998 etc)
The year that comes after 184 BC is 183 BC.
Yes because in BC it goes backwards meaning that 50BC is closer to present day than 500BC
Oh, what a happy little question! BC stands for "Before Christ," and it helps us count the years before the birth of Jesus. So, in a way, BC does go backwards in time, helping us understand history and how far back events occurred. Just like painting, understanding time can be a beautiful journey of discovery.

First of all remember that the Romans had no concept of "BC" or "AD". Those connotations are (loosely) modern ones. The Romans counted their years from the founding of the city.First of all remember that the Romans had no concept of "BC" or "AD". Those connotations are (loosely) modern ones.
