Sorry to the person who thought the question seemed rude, or 'demanding'. This was my first question and I tried to fit the exact question in, and I asked a sibling to type it up for me while I did something.

Answer 1

The Roman calendar before Julius Caesar was based on a year of 365 days. In his time it was realised that the calendar had got out of step with the seasons because the actual length of time taken for the earth to orbit the sun was nearer to 365.25 days. So an extra day was introduced every four years. Thus was the Julian calendar established. By the seventeenth century the calendar was again out of step, because 365.25 was a slight over-estimate of the true length of a year. The cumulative error then amounted to ten days. So Pope Gregory XIII decreed that the day following 4th October 1582 would be 15th October.

Answer 2

5th to 14th October, 1582 when the Pope introduced the Gregorian Calendar to replace the Julian one............

During the period between 1582, when the first countries adopted the Gregorian calendar, and 1923, when the last European country adopted it, it was often necessary to indicate the date of some event in both the Julian calendar and in the Gregorian calendar, for example, "10/21 February 1751/52", where the dual year accounts for some countries already beginning their numbered year on 1 January while others were still using some other date. Even before 1582, the year sometimes had to be double dated because of the different beginnings of the year in various countries. Woolley, writing in his biography of John Dee (1527-1608/9), notes that immediately after 1582 English letter writers "customarily" used "two dates" on their letters, one OS and one NS.[2]

Answer 3

Perhaps this is reference to the period of September 2, 1752-September 14, 1752 when the calendar was switched from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar. In order to correlate the two calendars, September 14, 1752 became the day after September 2, 1752. Since this adjustment was not totally universal, as other countries had adjusted earlier, technically, no one was born or died between September 2 and September 14, 1752. To verify, search the history of the gregorian calendar through yahoo search.

Answer 4

I would answer that question but someone already has. Don't you think it would be a good idea for you to thank the person that did your work for you? In advance as well.
You know, DEMANDING someone to give you answers isn't the kind of question I would ever answer, regardless of who you are. There IS such a thing as manners, you know. Seems like there is less and less of that here with each passing day.

Answer 5

I agree with the Adam and Eve chick.
