It makes an even better job than the Gregorian calendar when it comes to approximating the calendar to the solar year.
minus-squarePhil_in_here@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·6 months agoThere is a pretty fucking solid one: 13 months exactly 4 weeks long. 364 days. Two unique days: New Years Day and Leap Day. Just put them together. Now every month is the same length. Every numbered day is the same day of the week in every month for the whole year.
