Why was 11 days removed from the the month of September in 1752? What could it have felt like, slept September 2nd, to wake on 14th September? This was the experience of over six and a half million Britons who went to bed on September 2, 1752, and woke up on September 14 of the same year. What then happened to the missing 11 days of September 1752? Before 1752, Britain and her Empire followed the Julian calendar, first implemented by Julius Caesar in 46 B.C. However this calendar had an inbuilt error of 1 day every 128 years, due to a miscalculation of the solar year by 11 minutes. This affected the date of Easter, traditionally observed on March 21, as it began to move further away from the spring equinox with each passing year. To get over this problem, the Gregorian calendar was introduced. This is a solar calendar, based on a 365-day year divided into 12 months. Each month consists of either 30 or 31 days with one month, February, consisting of 28 days. A leap year every 4 years adds an extra day to February making it 29 days long... https://brainerves.com/the-11-lost-days-of-september-1752/ 3 Likes 1 Share

 one funny thing that many people dont understand about some of this Calender error is that the biblical stories that recorded men living up to 300 years was simply because their months where 22 days of lunar cycle, and most of the accient people had 4 days in a week and this is why they had 4 market days accross acient times even in Africa, because market days was like their own monday This theory of mine is simple, No Humaniod (homosapens homoerectus) according to biology and fossil (test on bones and carbon dating)had even lived up to 300 years.. so this leaves us to two simple conclussions, either moses the author of book of Genesis is falsefying stories or Calender used 5000 years ago has lesser days than what Mosses Generation uses ./. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Your post didn't exactly explain what happened to the 11 days, just some jumbled up talk about how the Gregorian calendar is different from the Julian. 1 Like |

This is true, the change in the calender caused new year to be changed from April 1 to January 1, and those who celebrated new year on the 1st of April were termed 'FOOLS' hence the term April Fools day. |
