Date System In Your Nation

Postby Neo-Assyrian Empire » Sat May 18, 2013 9:22 am

What date system does your nation use? Does it use the Month-Day-Year form, the Day-Month-Year system, or something completely different? In the empire, we use the Month-Day-Year form.

Kawaiians have their own calendar(s), both Lunar and Solar.

Lunar calender dates are written:
[name of week within the month][number of day in the week][number of 60-month cycle][name of month]
For example, today is "Jouchan-2 of the 1190th Moon of the Fire Dog"

Solar calendar dates are simply the season name, and the number of days into the season. Solar years aren't numbered.
Today is "the 14th day of the Season of Warming".

Usually dates in Radiatia last a few hours, depending on whether it's a dinner date, a date at the movies or something else. Occasionally the date will be a 'success' and result in both parties convening at a single located, usually the one's residence and....

Oh. Wrong sort of date sorry.

Yeah, ugh, Radiatia is DD/MM/YYYY.

OK, all civilised nations except Rejistania. Happy? I swear, you're the first nation we've heard of who writes the date that way.

Nations who use month/day/year on the other hand...

Yes, happy! :)

You'd be surprised: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country (As Rejistania has some Eastern influences, it made sense ICly, but then, I use it OOCly as well out of personal preference).

Most subdivisions utilize the "DD/MM/YYYY" format. However, some make use of the "YYYY/MM/DD" format as well.
