Ok, questions about the dates...

is it correctly written as (i.e. A.D. 100 or 100 A.D.)?
is B.C. correctly written as (i.e. 100 B.C. or B.C. 100)

Does this also apply to B.C.E. and C.E.? like, C.E. 100.

I was told to write A.D. 100 and 100 B.C. but I'm not sure.

You need to choose between B.C (Before Christ) and B.C.E (Before Circa Era), & A.D ("In the Year of Our Lord" [Latin translation]) and C.E (Circa Era)
Personally, I use B.C. & A.D.

I personally use C.E. and B.C.E. so where does the placement stand?

A.D. = anno domini so yeap latin translation.
