What is the difference between BCE and CE?

BCE counts years back from the start of the common era, and CE counts forward. There is no year 0, so 1 BCE is followed by 1 CE.

How do you find years between a BCE date and a CE date?

Add the years and subtract 1. From 10 BCE to 10 CE is 10 plus 10 minus 1, which is 19 years.
