Library Data:Imperial Calendar

Library Data Milieu 1116 

Calendar established at the creation of the Third Imperium as a universal calendar reform. Dates count from the founding of the Imperium, the year 'zero'. Dates before zero are negative, dates after are positive. For example, Terra discovered jump drive in -2431. The Imperium was founded in year Zero. The year is divided into 365 standard days, which are grouped into 52 weeks of seven days each. The lengths of days and weeks are a legacy of Terran domination during the Second Imperium|. Days are numbered consecutively, beginning with one. The first day of the year is a holiday and is not part of any week. For example, the first day (Holiday) of the year 1104 is 001-1104. The last day of the year 1105 is 365-1104.

The Office of Calendar Compliance is responsible for the enforcement of compliance to the Imperial Calendar throughout the Imperium.
