Yes.
1 year, obviously. If you wanted to know how far apart are 500 BC and 501 AD, the answer is 1001 years.
We currently use AD in current day. To determine how long ago a year which ends in AD is, you simply subtract the year from the current one. We will use 2014 as an example. 2014-500= 1514. With today being in 2014, 500 AD was 1,514 years ago.
999 years, because there was no year zero.
Year 1
Nothing much in that particular year.
BC= stands for Befor Christ(count down) AD= stands for nAnno Domini(in the year of the lord) You know when years counted down right? Well that is BC. Then AD is when the years count up. When the abbreviations are the same then subtract(-) if they are different the add(+) 500 BC And 500 AD its 1,000 years! Now do you get it? If you still dont get it.... ASK YOUR TEACHER!
In 500-1500 AD it was the Middle Ages.

yes
current year + BC year - 1 Example: 2013 + 500 - 1 = 2512, so 500 BC is 2512 years before AD 2013.
200 -(-500) = 2500, but since there is no year 0 then it is 2499 years ago
It is recognized that many historians chose to use CE instead of AD. Or in some cases both are used such as 500 CE/AD. In either case, 600 CE/AD came after 500 CE/AD.
