I need to put these history dates in Chronological order to fill out a history chart on Buddhism. I am not sure the correct order and don't want to get the whole chart wrong. Please help.

5th century B.C.E.
350 C.E.
500 C.E.
819 C.E.
Early 9th century C.E.
845 C.E.

What is the correct chronological order and how could I know how to do this myself? thanks.

Your dates are in the correct chronological order except --

You could put early 9th century C.E. just before 819 C.E.

Ms. Sue is correct.

It is easy to do this yourself. All you need to know that with B.C.E. dates, the higher dates come before the lower dates. For example, 5th century B.C.E. is an earlir date than 3rd Century B.C.E.

To put these history dates in chronological order, you need to determine the sequence based on the timeline.

Here is the correct chronological order for the given history dates:

5th century B.C.E.
350 C.E.
500 C.E.
819 C.E.
Early 9th century C.E.
845 C.E.

To figure this out without assistance, you can use the following steps:

1. Identify the date range: Determine the earliest and latest years mentioned in the dates. In this case, the earliest is the 5th century B.C.E., and the latest is 845 C.E.

2. Group dates by century: Divide the timeline into centuries, starting from the earliest year. In this case, you have dates falling into the 5th century B.C.E., the 4th century C.E., the 5th century C.E., the 9th century C.E., and the 9th century C.E.

3. Sort within each century: Arrange the dates within each century in chronological order. For example, within the 5th century B.C.E., the only date is the 5th century B.C.E. itself. For the 4th century C.E., you have 350 C.E. After that, in the 5th century C.E., you have 500 C.E. Next, in the 9th century C.E., you have 819 C.E. Finally, in the 9th century C.E., you have 845 C.E.

By following this process, you will be able to order historical dates chronologically.
