The first Century was 100 years long, just as all centuries are. As the years went by,
they were labeled in order to keep track of them, with labels numbered from '1' to '100'.
At the end of year #100, the first Century was full, and another Century was started.
The 2nd Century began on January 1, 101, and ended on December 31, 200 .
The second half of the 20th century is from 12:00 on January 1, 1951 until 00:00 on January 1, 2001.
There are 100 years in one century.
There are 5000 years in 50 centuries. A century is 100 years. 50 centuries x 100 years/century = 5000
There are 100 years in a century.One century equals one hundred years.
The number of years in a second... by definition!
First century. A century is 100 years, and the first century is years 1-100. The second sentury is 101-200, etc.
Because years 1-100 are in the first century; years 101-200 are in the second century, and so on... 2010 is in the 21st century.
The last decade of the second century.
150 AD is in the second century, which spans the years 101-200.
The second half of the 20th century is from 12:00 on January 1, 1951 until 00:00 on January 1, 2001.
AD means ano domini - "in the year of our Lord [Jesus Christ]". A century is 100 years. Therefore, the first century is years 1-100, the second century 101-200, etc.
Because we didn't start the count at the year 1,000. We started at 0. So the year 127 was in the first century (the first one hundred years), the year 1450 was in the second century (the second set of one hundred years), so on and so forth.

The years 1-100 are in the first century. 101-200 in the second, etc. Today we live in the 21st century (2001-2100).
The years 0 thru 99 is the 1st century. The years 100 thru 199 is the second century. It sounds weird but 0 thru 99 is the first century that we went thru and 100 thru 199 is the second century that we went thru. Therefore 2000 thru 2099 is the 21st century that we are going thru. You have to count the century before it as time past. It used to confuse me too.
The 21st century refers to the period from the year 2001 to 2100. Centuries are counted starting from the year 1, so each century encompasses 100 years. Therefore, the first century was from 1 to 100, the second from 101 to 200, and so on. As a result, the 21st century includes the years beginning with 2001, making it the current century.
1st. century. A century is 100 years, so logically, the first century is 1-100, the second century 101-200, etc. Sometimes a slightly different calculation is used: first century 1-99, second century 100-199, etc. AD means "ano domini" - after Christ.
