==Behind the Scenes==
It is unclear exactly when the New Byzantine Calender was in use - whether it was just a different version of writing dates (so, the 61st century) or an entirely new dating system. A [[New Roman Empire]] was mentioned to exist in the year [[12,005]] in ''[[The End of the World]]'', but other than the name (the Byzantine Empire was the name given to the Eastern Roman Empire in the real world) there is little to connect them.
