Wow, I have been looking for a resource like this for years. I had put the question more in the form of, what year did they call it in Rome what we now call the year 1 AD? Now I know it's Augustus 30 or something like that.

I would like to see this in a timeline format where all the different eras can be shown along side each other.

It was called 'the year when Caesar and Paullus were consuls' for most purposes, but also dated as the 754th year since the founding of Rome (AUC).
