How to organise historical documents?

I save a lot of treaties, speeches etc. and when I organise them, if I put the date at the beginning it gets all fucked up because of the BC and AD addition so it will be organised as:

file 1: 1993 AD
file 2: 1993 BC
file 3: 2001 AD

rather than

file 1: 1993 BC
file 2: 1993 AD
file 3: 2001 AD

so in order to fix this, I put AD and BC at the front which results in:

file 1: AD 1993
file 2: AD 2001
file 3: BC 1993

BUT as you can see, the BC comes AFTER the AD. THIS IS REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING.

maybe I am just being a retard but can someone help me by giving me a method to organise these files.

I don't want to use BCE and CE because that is fucking gay! That doesn't even bring up the problem of smaller numbers as we get closer to AD 0 from BC.

Store what in separate folders? Have separate folders for AD and BC, that's fucking stupid! Don't you like seeing a natural progression in documents? A chronology?

And what if I have a folder for a specific thing like the roman empire, do I have a folder entitled the 'Roman Empire' and then 'AD' and 'BC' within it?! That is UGLY.

Since you don't want to streamline your shit, just fucking tag the files and sort by tag

Your BC sort order will be fucked up anyway unless you pad with 0s. Group them into directories of 100 years, perhaps?

If you're too retarded to do it right, just use BCE/CE.

>BCE 1993
>CE 1993
>CE 2001
