What is a Century?
A century is a period of 100 years. For example, the 20th century was from 1901 to 2000. We are currently living in the 21st century, which started in 2001 and will end in 2100. The 29th century is a long way off, almost 800 years from now!
How Do We Count Centuries?
Centuries are counted starting from year 1. The 1st century was from the year 1 to 100. The 2nd century was from 101 to 200, and so on. So, the 29th century includes all the years from 2801 to 2900.
