The Geonomian Calendar

In the Geonomian Calendar, there are 12 months and 365 days.
Year 0 is the year the Geo Tribe was united under Tokad the Strong and it is currently the 17th century

The first five months (The Harvest Months [La Toms Stavé]) have 35 days, the next six months (The Cold Months) have 30 days and the last month (Nuletom) has 10 days.

The Calendar works the same as the Gregorian Calendar. Every year that is divisible by four is a leap year, except for years that are divisible by 100, but these centurial years are leap years if they are divisible by 400. For example, the years 1700, 1800, and 1900 are not leap years, but the years 1600 and 2000 are.

Each week is seven days long.
The Days of the week are as follows: Yadesol (Sunday), Yadenom (Moon day), Yadekair (Earth day), Yadewiint (Star day), Yadekendu (Leader day), Yadeplendu (Builder day) and Yadeomegu (Knowledge day). The week begins on Yedesol.
