There's no real term for the era, or at least not that I know of.
[He just knows of the emperors who have come and gone. He's hardly a scribe or an educator, though (not that he can't read.)]
Let's just say that there are far more differences than similarities. Transportation is by foot, horse, or ship. Communication across distances can take weeks; anything like these devices, or "phones" aren't even a figment of the imagination. And there's certainly no "electricity" or running water. I'd never seen a stove, although we have clay ovens. The architecture and building materials are also very different compared to what I'm used to.
