To keep a calendar’s annual dates in sync with the seasons, leap days must be added at both regular and irregular intervals. Since a solar year is 365 days and 5:49:12 hours long, adding a leap day every four years
leaves an extra 10 minutes and 48 seconds unaccounted for each year. The original Julian calendar (from Julius Caesar) ignored these extra minutes, which had accumulated to ten days by 1582. Pope Gregory XIII then proposed the Gregorian calendar used today, by deleting the ten days and eliminating leap days
in years that are multiples of 100 but not 400. Supposedly, riots ensued because the masses feared their lives were being shortened by ten days. Outside the Catholic church, resistance to change slowed the reforms. The deletion of days did not occur in England and America until September 1752, and not until 1927 in Turkey.
для тех кто в танке:
оказывается иногда високосный год совсем не високосный. Если год делится на 100, но не на 400, то в этом году в феврале 28 дней. Турки не воспринимали грегорианский календарь до 1927 года.
