The Year Names of China and Japan

By P Suski
About The Year Names of China and Japan

Japan adopted the practice of using year names of 'Nengoh' during 645 AD (the first year of Taikwa). Since then the accession of a new emperor, with the exception of a few, has been marked with a new year title, exactly as has been the custom in China. This title provides a comparison of historical dates of two Oriental nations.
