203
Year 203 (CCIII) was a common year starting on Saturday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Plautianus and Geta (or, less frequently, year 956 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 203 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

gollark: One of my friends did roughly that because they wanted to switch from DT to Economics late in the year.
gollark: There's not very much nuance in any of it, not really anything about how economists don't actually *agree* on everything, and not any maths more complicated than division.
gollark: I also do Economics as an option (we do 7-ish (depends how you count them) required subjects and 3 options here) which seemed interesting but is kind of pointless, since basically all of the stuff they teach for that is pretty simplistic.
gollark: Writing pages upon pages of random nonsense to express something like a paragraph of content is very unpleasant.
gollark: I once wrote a 750-word essay on a poem which was 6 lines long.
