Detailed Solution

Dates before the birth of Christ are counted in backwards and are known as BC.
These years are measured starting from the day typically regarded as Jesus Christ's birth. For example, the year 2000 BC denotes 2000 years after the birth of Christ. Every date before the birth of Christ is calculated backwards and is typically represented by BC (Before Christ). The letters BC (Before Christ) are affixed at the end of dates before the birth of Christ in the traditional chronological system. And AD is added for dates that occur after the birth of Christ. However, the new method substitutes BCE and CE for BC and AD.
