If I am not wrong this holds true for the switch from Julian calendar to the Gregorian one. Some months were shortened to be synchronised with the new system. And if I am not mistaken Jewish and Arabs do not use the same systems we use for months and years

For an added twist this changeover occurred in different years, at different times in different countries .. and not always with the same number of days difference.

Good Times.

And even more good times. It seems sometimes some countries went back to Julian...
