  • It will start in 2021.

This depends on the applied Chronology.

If there is Year zero in your country, then the decade has started in 2020.

There is year zero in the Hindu and in the Buddhist calendar, but there is no Year zero in my country (Hungary) (nor in the Gregorian calendar, neither in the Julian calendar), so the new decade will start in 2021.

Someone told me the following two weeks ago (on 2020.01.03) on a forum:
"Which was the first year of year numbering? 1 or 0?
If 1, then here are the first and last years of the first and a few additional decades:

  1. 1-10
  2. 11-20
  3. 91-100
  4. 991-1000
  5. 2011-2020

So the decade starts in xxx1, and ends in xxx0.
The current decade will end on december 31, the new will start on 2021 january 1st."

I translated this (the quoted part) from Hungarian. I am Hungarian.

I do agree with the decade starting in xxx1 and ending in xxx0.
