Not just a new year, but a new decade

Well, the folks who came up with the calendar we use started with 1 AD, not zero. So the first decade of the last millennium ended with 10 AD, not 9 AD. Thus every decade, century, and millennium begins with a 1 and ends with a 0. That’s why 2020 is the last year in the current decade and 2021 is the first year of the next decade.
