The new Japanese era name has been announced.
The previous era was Showa. The current one is Heisei.
From the Japan Foundation:
The name of the new era, “#令和 (#reiwa)”, has been announced today!
In Japan, we use one era name during each emperor’s reign, along with the Western (Gregorian) calendar.
The new era is to begin on May 1.
