Description
Hopper b16,

run attachment testcase under simplified or tradition chinese env,
#java DateTest

you can see that the era is "ming guo" and "ming guo qian", but the year number is still 2002 and 101, As in taiwan, the year base on the birth of Republic of China (AD 1911) is also very popular, so should display as "<ming guo> 91" and "<ming guo  qian> 3911", so if era is "ming guo" or "ming guo qian", need another calendar support for tradition chinese.
