If 1000 B.C, 999 B.C, 5 B.C, 10 A.D, 1000 A.D, and 5 A.D were to be put in order what would it look like?

(it's before christ not death btw)

1000 bc, 999 bc, 5 bc, 5 ad, 10 ad and 1000 ad.

B.C. counts down to 'the birth of christ, though 'historically' it was supposed to have happened in 4 b.c.

Anno domini meaning 'in the year of our lord' is any time after christ's birth



though to be politically correct it is now BCE and CE (before common era, and common era) which, being non christian, i prefer personally *shrugs*.

They're almost in order there, just put 5 AD between 5 BC and 10 AD.

1000 BC, 999 BC, 5BC, 5AD, 10 AD, 1000AD

Consider BC to be negative numbers, and AD to be positive.

This is the equivalent of -1000,-999,-5,5,10,1000

As far as BC or BCE- I guess we're trying to remove all semblances of Christianity from our culture. <--- (slightly bitter statement)
