O knihe
Excerpt from Outlines of American Colonial History
Julian Calendar. 46 B. C. Every year exactly divisible by four a leap year. This made average year 365 1-4 days, which was too long, so that the solar outran the calendar year.
Reform of Gregory XIII. 1582 A. D. The calendar had fallen ten days behind in 1582. Gregory dropped ten days, i. E. Added them to the date. Also provided that centurial years should be leap years only when divisible by 400. This makes average year 365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes, 12 seconds, which is less than 26 seconds too long and amounts to but one day in 3325 years.
