     ("Gengo" is the Japanese reading of Mandarin Chinese "yuanhao".
     Yuanhao were used in China during the imperial ages, to 1912.
     "Reiwa" is "Linghe" in Mandarin.)

   kind of side notes:    era name or Gengo is "NianHao" in Mandarin,
   literally "year name" or "era name" as commonly referred in English. In
   China after 1911, the era name is Minguo ("state/country of the
   citizens"), aka the Republic of China.   2024 is Minguo 113, Year 113
   of the Republic of China.

     This year, 2023 AD (or CE) is year Reiwa 6.  It is also year Showa
     99,
