The Caseic Calendar is the calendar that was historically used in the Caseic Archipelago before the Grand Calming. Its use was phased out and replaced by the Haracalnde in 6 PC for the purposes of simplifying trade with the Eastern Bloc.

Description

The Caseic Calendar uses a 351-day year, split into thirteen months, all with 27 days each. The months, in order, go from 0 to 9, then are followed by X, Y, and Z. Days are written as numbers ranging from 01 to 27, with leading zeros included for single-digit days. There are no leap years or intercalary days.

For historical purposes, prefixes are used to denote years in the distant past. The prefix C is used for a day exactly 1000 Caseic years before the date in question. e.g. C572-8-24 is exactly 351000 days before 572-8-24. Similarly, the prefix A is used for 2000 Caseic years, and though rarely used because of how little is known about ancient Caseic history, E is for 3000 Caseic years.

Conversion

The Caseic Calendar was phased out in 6 PC, to be replaced by the Haracalnde. To do so, the conversion datum used was the day of the Grand Calming: Haracalnde 18-1 1 PC is equal to Caseic 572-8-24. To determine other days, count the number of days since the Grand Calming: the difference in day count should be the same. For longer periods of time, it is useful to know that 40 Caseic years are exactly equal to 39 Haracalnde years.
