Valdyan history hasn't progressed beyond the five hundreds yet - currently the ongoing role-playing game (the one that makes history) is in 527 after the founding of the kingdom. Not that they count centuries, or that they count very accurately at all. The start of a new year is a great feast (I'll write about it at the spring equinox) but which year it is is only important to historians, and they tend not to agree.
