Detailed Solution

AD is an abbreviation for 'Anno Domini'.
Anno Domini is a Latin phrase that means ‘in the year of the Lord.’ The BC/AD dating system was designed to make the birth of Jesus Christ the dividing point in world history. AD denotes years since the beginning of this epoch, while BC denotes years before the beginning of the era. The term Anno Domini is used in the Gregorian calendar, which is the most widely used calendar in the world. In place of BC and AD, the terms BCE and CE are also used. BCE stands for the Before Common Era, and CE stands for the Common Era.
