Mystery of Lost.
3rd day of September 1752, in England and all the English colonies, including the United States experienced the loss of 11 days (3 to 13 September). When people wake up, they found that the date has been changed to 14 September. People think that the government is trying to deceive them, as a result of unrest in many rural areas and the English colonies. Something similar actually happened in other places, the French experience in 1582, Austria in 1584 and Norway in 1700 England were among the last countries in the world that uses a flawed calendar. Julian calendar (the calendar by Julius Caesar) were adopted around 45 BC, declared March 25 as a day of new year (1 year = 365 days and 6 hours longer). Calendar formally adopted the Council of Nicea in 325 AD, as it allows for a more accurate measure on the sun. Astronomers find that the system exceeds the Julian solar year by 11 minutes (24 hours every 131 years, or 3 days every 393 years). This excess amounts to 10 days in the span of 325 years and 1582 AD.When most of the country jumped 10 days on October 5, 1582, to restore the vernal equinox on March 21. To prevent the recurrence of such errors, Pope Gregory XII introduced a new calendar system, or better known as the Gregorian calendar. He ordered every 400 years three times a day to eliminate extra leap year, which reduces the last day in February on a regular basis (one hundred year 2, 3 and 4). So next will be eliminated in 1700, 1800 and 1900 then the reduction will occur in 2100, 2200 and 2300. All Catholic countries followed the Pope's orders to implement the new system, in the UK and in Russia refused to follow the Gregorian calendar system and still use the Julian calendar system. But the majority of people in the UK (Scotland) and the other colonies began using the Gregorian calendar in the early 16th century, so many found a note with a double date, for example "12 Februari 1661/1662". That is dated February 12, 1661 according to the Julian calendar, while the date is entered in the year 1662 in the Gregorian count. The double dates just occur in January, February, and March. Because prior to 1752 in the Julian calendar, March was the first month for every year if seen with the Gregorian calendar. Thus making the celebration of the new year be different in European countries. Thank you for reading this article.
