3rd millennium
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This SourceThe third millennium is a period of time which commenced on January 1, 2001 and will end on December 31, 3000 of the Gregorian calendar. This is the third period of one thousand years in the Common Era.
As this millennium is currently in progress, only its first decade, the 2000s, can be the subject of the historian's attention. The remaining part of the 21st century and longer-term trends are in the province of futures studies.
