          Plot twist: Centuries end in "0", they don't start in "0".

          The 21st Century started 1/1/2001.

                Mathematics and languages have different rules.

                In languages it is possible for one century to be a yewa shorter than all the others. Other centuries begin on a year divisible by hundred, but centuries 1–99 and -1–-99 don't. They are both missing a year, and outside mathematics that's just fine.

                If almost all native speakers of a language say that a century begins in a year divisible by hundred then that's how it goes in that language.

                    One year too early for the title? The 21st century started on 2001.

                        How so? The first century surely started with year 0, the first year. Just like a person is zero years old during its first year. And years 0-99 make up the first century. Then the second century starts at 100-199, and so on. 🤷‍♂️

                                Correct.

                                The 1st century started at 1 A.D. and included 100. 2nd century started 101 to 200. Etc etc. If you change the 21st century to be 2000. You would to shift everything down. Eventually making the 1st century 99 years. Or creating a year 0 or using 1BC.
