The politically correct way to refer to the time period before the Common Era is "BCE," which stands for "Before Common Era." This terminology is often used to avoid religious connotations associated with "BC," or "Before Christ." BCE is part of a more inclusive system that also includes "CE," or "Common Era," instead of AD ("Anno Domini").

What is the other meaning for AD and BC?
AD means anno domini, "Year of the Lord", and is frequently used to refer to years in the common era. BC means "Before Christ" and is frequently used to refer to years before the start of the common era. These terms were introduced by the Roman abbot Dionysus Exiguus, who sought to use the year on which Jesus may have been born as the basis for a new calendar. As a universal, world calendar, the use of AD and BC is somewhat unsuitable, as Jesus is not recognized as the Lord of Jews, Muslims, Hindus, atheists and so on. Hence, the gradual adoption of CE(Common Era) in place of AD and BCE (Before Common Era) in place of BC.
