Imgonnatrythis, Pretty f’d up we can’t all even agree on this. Between this and DST, humanity is just pretty hopeless.
Mobiuthuselah, Isn’t Japanese read from right to left?
OsrsNeedsF2P, No that’s Arabic
ahriboy, 
Japanese and Chinese were read right-to-left until 20th century.
Patawagon, Japan reads back to front
pingveno, To nitpick, it reads from front to back. It just has a different concept of front and back from the West.

cinnamonTea, What eras do they have/use?
imgel, Each emperor (Japan) and Big Change (China), is given a name. You can look up the current japanese era. From a friend, the chinese (and others like Singapore, Macau, Taiwan) are also living in an era with its corresponding year.
ILikeBoobies, Canada does that
