General

Current year in Perplex City is 268 AC. Years are the same length as Earth years, with the same months and dates.

Years are designated with "BC" and "AC", originally thought to refer to "Before Cube" and "After Cube". Though with the Receda Cube only being discovered in 7AC (1744) this is unlikely. Cube History
