A century is one hundred years.
BC stands for "Before Christ" and AD stands for "Anno Domini", meaning "in the year of the Lord". So 100 BC means, well, 100 years before Christ arrived. 200 BC means 200 years and so on. BC time counts backwards, so 2000 BC is further in the past than 1000 BC.
The terms BCE are coming into use, meaning "Before the Christian Era" or "Before the Common Era" which is more acceptable to countries that have no or few Christians.
Similarly CE (Christian Era, or Common Era) are being used instead of AD.

How many years between 400BC and 1500AD?
To find the number of years between 400 BC and 1500 AD, we need to calculate the difference between the two dates. First, let's convert 400 BC to BC to AD: 400 BC is equal to 400 years before the start of the AD era. Since the AD era starts at 1 AD, we add 400 years to 1 AD to get: 400 BC + 400 years = 1 AD Now, we can calculate the difference between 1 AD and 1500 AD: 1500 AD - 1 AD = 1499 years So, there are 1499 years between 400 BC and 1500 AD.
