Considering this, how long has it been since the new millennium?
In the current millennium, there will be 8 regular centuries (ending in 2100, 2200, 2300, - , 2500, 2600, 2700, - , 2900, and 3000) and 2 leap centuries (ending in 2400 and 2800), meaning that a total of 8 * 24 + 2 * 25 = 242 leap days will be added to the 1000 * 365 = 365,000 days.
Furthermore, when did the 21st century begin? January 1, 2001
Beside above, what year did the millennium start?
January 1, 2001
Did the Millennium start in 2000 or 2001?
The inexorable mathematical logic is that the official calendar millennium does not start until the year 2001. The first 2000 years end with the year 2000, and the next thousand start with 2001, the first year of the third millennium.
