Random information on the term “Era”:

Chinese era names were titles used by various Chinese dynasties and regimes in Imperial China for the purpose of year identification and numbering. The first monarch to adopt era names was the Emperor Wu of Han in 140 BCE, and this system remained the official method of year identification and numbering until the establishment of the Republic of China in 1912 CE, when the era name system was superseded by the Republic of China calendar. Other polities in the Sinosphere—Korea, Vietnam and Japan—also adopted the concept of era name as a result of Chinese politico-cultural influence.

Chinese era names were titles adopted for the purpose of identifying and numbering years in Imperial China. Era names originated as mottos or slogans chosen by the reigning monarch and usually reflected the political, economic and/or social landscapes at the time. For instance, the first era name proclaimed by the Emperor Wu of Han, Jianyuan (建元; lit. “establishing the origin”), was reflective of its status as the first era name. Similarly, the era name Jianzhongjingguo (建中靖國; lit. “establishing a moderate and peaceful country”) used by the Emperor Huizong of Song was indicative of Huizong’s idealism towards moderating the rivalry among the conservative and progressive parties regarding political and social reforms.

Random information on the term “AGE”:

Countries in the East Asian cultural sphere (China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and their diasporas) have traditionally used specific methods of reckoning a person’s numerical age based not on their birthday but the calendar year, and what age one is considered at birth. These methods currently see only limited use in certain contexts and areas, mainly in South Korea and Taiwan. A person’s age will always be one or two years greater than his or her age in the international norm. In the context of South Korea, this reckoning is often referred to as Korean age, but in 2022, the government of South Korea announced plans to switch from this Korean age system to the system used by most other countries in the world.

In traditional China, where the system originated millennia ago, people were considered to be one “year old” at birth (one sui 嵗/岁), and on New Year’s Day of the lunar calendar, another year was added to their age. In other words, age was counted with ordinal numbers, not cardinal numbers; also, age was counted from the lunar new year, not from the date of birth. The Korean system uses the Gregorian calendar.
