Foundations: 8000BCE - 600CE
AP World History qualifies dates as BCE (Before the Common Era) and CE (Common Era). BCE refers to the same time as BC (Before Christ) and CE refers to the same time as AD (Anno Domini, "in the year of our Lord"). World historians believe it is important to use terminology that does not apply the standards of 1 society to all others, so the terminology BCE and CE has arisen to be more inclusive.
