SEPTEMBER 1752

September 1752

Strange but really interesting that even there can be happenings like this. This particular month has something special.

   September 1752
S  M Tu  W Th  F  S
      1  2 14 15 16
17 18 19 20 21 22 23
24 25 26 27 28 29 30

Not a typical calendar by any means! Where have gone the days between September 2 and 14? Answer: September 1752 is the month Britain switched from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian Calander.

This means that dates prior September 1752 should be calculated according to the Julian calendar right? This is where it gets confusing: not all countries have switched at the same time.

So when you have an old date, you should make sure you know which calendar to use before doing any calculation with it.

If this is the confusion we have in our calender days, there seems nothing new that we have so much of confusion in our day to day life .....
