Assuming that BCE is a renaming of BC and CE is a renaming of AD of the calendar devised by Dionysius Exiguus in 247 Anno Diocletiani which he designated 531 AD since he calculated that Jesus was born 531 years earlier, becoming his year 1 AD, which was preceded by 1 BC as zero was not invented for another 500 years or so, then between 200 BCE and 2000CE there are the 199 years 199 BCE to 1 BCE and the 1999 years from 1 CE to 1999 CE, making a total of 199 + 1999 = 2198 years between 200 BCE and 2000 CE (exclusive). However, as people were celebrating 2000 CE as the start of the third millennium CE, the second must have run from 1000 CE to 1999 CE and thus the first must have run from 0 CE to 999 CE which means that in the BCE/CE calendar there is a year 0, which means between 200 BCE and 2000 CE there is an extra year, meaning there are 2199 years between 200 BCE and 2000 CE (exclusive). Which dates have been corrected for this extra year in the BCE/CE calendar over the BC/AD calendar I would love to know; for example, Julius Caesar was assassinated on 15 March 44 BC, so is that 15 March 43 BCE?
There is not a year zero. So, when 1 BCE ends, 1 CE begins. The division is at midnight on 31 December, 1 BCE.
It is generally accepted as 600 BCE to 500 CE.
1600 BCE - with BCE you count backwards, with CE you count forwards - 0 is the neutral point from which you count rather way.
Roman Republic 4xx to 28 BCE. Roman Empire 28 BCE to 476 CE, however the Byzantine Empire in the east continued until 1453 CE.
bce means 'Before Common Era'. It's the dates before we hit 0 and started counting upward. Now, we're in CE, or 'Common Era'.

The first century CE began at the beginning of 1 CE and ended at the end of 100 CE. The first century BCE ended at the end of 1 BCE, and the second century CE began at the beginning of 101 CE. (Note that there is no year 0, so 1 BCE immediately precedes 1 CE.)
There is not a year zero. So, when 1 BCE ends, 1 CE begins. The division is at midnight on 31 December, 1 BCE.
600 CE was the zenith of their culture.
It is generally accepted as 600 BCE to 500 CE.

ce and bce or bc and bce
yes
Hinduism - c. 2900 BCE Judaism - c. 1300 BCE Buddhism - 563 BCE Christianity - 30 CE Islam - 621 CE
There are 500 years between 250 CE and 250 BCE Years that are denoted as BCE are counted backwards until they get to 0 after which years are then denoted as CE and these ones count upwards. This means that to find the difference between these two years, you must first count from 250 BCE to 0 and then from 0 to 250 CE. 250 BCE to zero = 250 years Zero to 250 CE = 250 years Then sum them up: = 250 + 250 = 500 years
BCE or before common era
