The Nahan Calendar (Mosici: Template:Nahancit) is the calendar system used in Imerchal.
Mechanics
The Calendar divides the year into 12 months (Mosici: Template:Nahancit) of 30 days. Each are further divided into 5 6-day weeks (Mosici: Template:Nahancit; Occitan: rainal /rajnal/, not setmena, which is reserved for the gregorian week). A standalone 5- or 6-day week is added at the end of the year to keep the start of the year on the spring equinox[1]
The year are numbered according to an era. Historically eras started at the change of a monarch. Since the end of hereditary governement, years are counted since the fundation of the City.
Name of the Months
In mosici the months are less named and more numbered. indeed their names are constructed by compounding the Mosici number for the month with the word naim. In Occitan and English, the month names are borrowed from Mosici

in short it may be written as ST-l,fm,f,m (ST-2/10/4/1 in Latin), sm,s, or r,, (12/6/ or R//) is used as the month/week pair for the intercalary week.
- ↑ In practice the 6-day weeks happen on Nahan years that end on a Gregorian leap year, and the spring equinox is fixed to be on Gregorian 21 March. I do not want to do the astronomy and maths.
