Which period came after the Edwardian?

The Edwardian era ended in 1910 with the death of Edward VII. Then his son took the throne (George V), then his son took the throne but for less than a year (Edward VIII) then his brother took the throne (George VI) then his daughter (Elizabeth II). As you can see it would get difficult to name eras after the king/queen when since 1910 we've had 4 of them. That's why historians call the time after Edward VII the 1st World War era, then the Inter War era, then the 2nd World War era and finally the Cold War era-after that I would assume historians would consider it the modern/present era. HOWEVER This is my idea, but I wouldn't be shocked if historians (if given time) will one day refer to the time that Elizabeth II was Queen as the 2nd Elizabethian era. BUT If you really wanted to incompass all the time since Edward VII died into one whole era by using the name of a monarch I would use "Windsor era" because the one thing all the monarchs since Edward the VII have in common is that after him they all were the "house of Windsor." If the monarchy is abolished with-in the next 50 years or so I think historians will one day do this.

Why have some historians rejected the labels BC and AD for periods in world history?

Some historians have rejected the labels BC (Before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini, Latin for "in the year of our Lord") due to their Western-centric and religious connotations, which may not accurately reflect the diverse perspectives of global histories. They argue that these terms can alienate non-Christian cultures and fail to encompass the complexities of historical narratives beyond the scope of Christianity. As a result, alternative designations like BCE (Before Common Era) and CE (Common Era) are often preferred for their secular nature and inclusivity.

Historians know the least about what era?

Historians know the least about the prehistoric era, particularly the Paleolithic period, which predates written records. This time frame, spanning from roughly 2.6 million years ago to around 10,000 BCE, lacks written documentation, making it challenging to reconstruct events, social structures, and cultures. Most knowledge comes from archaeological findings, such as tools and cave paintings, which provide limited insight into the lives of early humans. Consequently, much of this era remains enigmatic and open to interpretation.
