About these units

Century (century)

A century equals 100 years and is a major unit of historical, demographic, and civilizational analysis. Historians frequently divide narratives into centuries to highlight long-term transformations—technological revolutions, empire rises and falls, or artistic movements. Sociologists study century-scale changes in population, urbanization, and cultural evolution. Although human lifespans rarely exceed one century, this unit is large enough to encompass sweeping societal changes, making it ideal for macrohistorical studies.

Quinquennial (5 years)

A quinquennial period spans five years, making it one of the most commonly used multi-year units in governance, finance, and planning. Censuses, audits, business forecasts, and infrastructure reviews often follow five-year cycles. Many governments plan budgets, reforms, and industrial strategies on a quinquennial basis. Five years is long enough to implement major projects yet short enough to adjust to changing economic or political circumstances—making the quinquennial an ideal strategic horizon.
