- Special case of Sweden.
-
- Sweden has a curious history. Sweden decided to make a gradual
- change from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. By dropping every
- leap year from 1700 through 1740 the eleven superfluous days would
- be omitted and from 1 Mar 1740 they would be in sync with the
- Gregorian calendar. (But in the meantime they would be in sync with
- nobody!)
-
- So 1700 (which should have been a leap year in the Julian calendar)
- was not a leap year in Sweden. However, by mistake 1704 and 1708
- became leap years. This left Sweden out of synchronisation with
- both the Julian and the Gregorian world, so they decided to go back
- to the Julian calendar. In order to do this, they inserted an extra
- day in 1712, making that year a double leap year! So in 1712,
- February had 30 days in Sweden.
-
- Later, in 1753, Sweden changed to the Gregorian calendar by
- dropping 11 days like everyone else and this is what we use here.
