Common Era. As in, "The war began in 1533 C.E." As opposed to B.C.E. (Before the Common Era).

The abbreviations used to be "A.D." for "Anno Domini" (the year of our Lord), and "B.C." for Before Christ. Jesus was supposedly born in 0 A.D. So the years 1974, or 1033, or 831 were all A.D., for Anno Domini (after Christ). Ancient times (before 0 A.D.) were called "B.C." for Before Christ.

The abbreviations were changed from A.D. and B.C. to C.E. and B.C.E. to make them more politically correct (as not everyone believes in Jesus).
