2008 (MMVIII) was a leap year that started on a Tuesday. In the Gregorian calendar, it was the 2008th year of the Common Era or of Anno Domini; the 8th year of the 3rd millennium and of the 21st century; and the 9th of the 2000s.

Micronationally speaking, in the MicroWiki Community, 2008 is sometimes known as the year of conception as the oldest members of the current community joined the site this year, and numerous micronations that later joined the group were founded this year.
