Casual reminder, out of nowhere, that no, we are not entering a new decade on January 1, 2021. Decades don't work like that. If we called it "the 202nd decade" it would. But decades start on the 0 year and end on the 9, because we don't count them ordinally..

(In the same way, the 1900s and the 20th century are slightly different!)

So the first decade had only nine years? Because there is no year 0 A.D. .

no. the first decade started on 1 and ended on 10.

The 0s only had nine years, it happens.

btw, every year we are entering a new decade, it's just not one with a nice name.
