from historicaldates import HistoricalDate

# Create a historical date for January 1, 500 BCE
date_bce = HistoricalDate(-500, 1, 1)

# Create a historical date for December 31, 500 CE
date_ce = HistoricalDate(500, 12, 31)

# Calculate the number of days between two dates
days_between = date_ce - date_bce
print(f"Days between: {days_between}")
