The year 2013 (MMXIII) was a common year starting on Tuesday.A common year is a common type of calendar year. In the Gregorian calendar, a common year has exactly 365 days and so is not a leap year. More generally, it is a calendar year without  intercalation.
A common year of 365 days has exactly 52 weeks and one day, so consequently the next new year is one day of the week later. Stated differently, a common year always begins and ends on the same day of the week. (For example, in 2010, both January 1 and December 31 fell on a Friday.) (link will display the full calendar) of the Gregorian calendar,  2013th year is the 13th year of the 3rd millennium, the 13th year of the 21st century, and the 4th year of the 2010s decade.
