Hi Samia, Thank you for accepting our invitation to be on our Australian radio program,

11^th September 2021

It's the year 2021 AD, however the Egyptian Christians [ Coptic Orthodox ], have recently finished celebrating their Coptic Orthodox New Year 1738

Let’s do the maths 2021

- 1738

=======

283 years difference

=======

Q1] What happened the year the Roman Emperor Diocletian ascended the throne ?,

what year was that ?

Q2] Is that when Copts decided to reset their calendar ?

Based on the story of their Coptic Officer named Maurice and his 6,600 fellow soldiers from the town

of Thebes [ near Luxor Egypt ], were ordered to travel to St Maurice Switzerland and fight on behalf of the Roman Army, then were killed by the order of Roman Emperor Maximilian for believing and following the faith of Christianity and not of the Roman Gods.

Coptic Orthodox's Monks were the first to preach Christianity into Europe.
