GREGORIAN CALENDAR

The solar calendar now in general use, introduced by gregory xiii in 1582 to correct an error in the julian calendar by suppressing 10 days, making oct 5 be called oct 15, and providing that only centenary years divisible by 400 should be leap years; it was adopted by great britain and the american colonies in 1752
