The Verdean Calendar is a calendar utilized largely within the boundaries of culturally Verdean nations. It is named partially after the Verdean faith Regio dela Verde, and the chief deity of the Verdean pantheon. The calendar has leap years in place to ensure an average year of 365.2425 days, determined by the rotation of [WORLD NAME] around [STELLAR NAME]. Leap days occur every four years, except every hundreth year unless that year is divisible by four. Adoption of the calendar predates adoption of a standardized civil calendar in non-Verdean states, and as a result the Meridonian civil calendar was largely plotted along similar lines to the Verdean calendar with different terminology and organization of the calendar. In spite of the outsize cultural influence of the Verdean states of the Post-Classical and Early Modern periods, the Verdean calendar never expanded past those nations which were majority or plurality Verdean in nature.
