Understanding "和暦" (wareki) and "西暦" (seireki)
The Japanese calendar, known as the "和暦" (wareki), differs from the Gregorian calendar, or "西暦" (seireki), which is widely used around the world. The key difference lies in the era names, which change with the reign of each emperor in Japan, as opposed to counting years continuously from a fixed point in time.
