    • Conversion Between Julian and Gregorian Calendars

    The Gregorian calendar, also known as the Western or Christian calendar, is the most widely used calendar in the world today. Its predecessor, the Julian calendar, was replaced because it did not correctly reflect the actual time it takes the Earth to circle once around the Sun, known as a tropical year. In the Julian calendar, a leap daywas added ...

    Over the centuries since its introduction in 45 BCE, the Julian calendar had gradually drifted away from astronomical events like the vernal equinox and the winter solstice. To make up for this error and get the calendar back in sync with the astronomical seasons, a number of days had to be dropped when the Gregorian calendar was adopted. For examp...

    The papal bull issued by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582 decreed that 10 days be skipped when switching to the Gregorian calendar. However, only five countries adopted the new calendar system that year—namely, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Spain, and most of France. Since the discrepancy between the Julian calendar year and the astronomical seasons kept growi...

    In total, more than three centuries passed until the Gregorian calendar had been adopted in all countries, from 1582 to 1927. The table below shows when the calendar reform occurred in some countries, including the first and the last.

    The delay in switching meant that countries followed different calendar systems for a number of years, resulting in differing leap year rules. In the Gregorian calendar, most years that are evenly divisible by 100 are common years, but they are leap years in the Julian calendar. This meant that the years 1700, 1800, and 1900 were leap years in coun...

    The Swedish Empire, roughly comprising the areas of today’s Sweden and Finland, even had a “double” leap year in 1712. Two days were added to February, creating February 30, 1712, after the leap day in 1700 had erroneously been dropped, and the calendar was not synchronized with either the Julian or the Gregorian system. By adding an extra leap day...

    In some non-western countries, the calendar reform took on many different guises to accommodate differing cultural and historical contexts. For example, Japan replaced its lunisolar calendar with the Gregorian calendar in January 1873but decided to use the numbered months it had originally used rather than the European names. The Republic of China ...

    Currently, the Julian calendar is 13 days behind the Gregorian calendar. So, to convert from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar, add 13 days; to convert in the opposite direction, subtract 13 days. The gap between the two calendar systems will increase to 14 days in the year 2100. Topics: Calendar, History

  5. It's the whole number in the calendar. So if the year consists of 365 days, each year will go ahead by almost a quarter of the day. It was made simpler in Julian calendar - each 4th year was made a "leap year" and had 366 days. So the length of a year in Julian calendar is 365.25 days which is much closer to a real tropical year. But not that ...

  6. Specifically, for dates on or before 4 October 1582, the Julian calendar is used; for dates on or after 15 October 1582, the Gregorian calendar is used. Thus, there is a ten-day gap in calendar dates, but no discontinuity in Julian dates or days of the week: 4 October 1582 (Julian) is a Thursday, which begins at JD 2299159.5; and 15 October ...

  7. A common year in the Julian calendar has 365 days divided into 12 months. In the Julian calendar, every four years is a leap year, with a leap day added to the month of February. At the time, February was the last month of the year, and Leap Day was February 24. February 30 Was a Real Date. However, leap years were not observed in the first ...
