Why the Months Are Named Wrong (A History of Our Calendar)

Our calendar is weird. September and October aren't the seventh and eighth months. February is just... off. Some months have 30 days, some have 31… and none of it seems to make sense. So where did our system of months actually come from? In this video, I break down the surprisingly chaotic history of the calendar — from ancient Rome’s original ten-month year that ignored winter, to how Julius Caesar and Cleopatra helped create the system we still use today. Along the way, we’ll talk about: Why September through December are named “wrong” Why February is so short (and unlucky) How Roman superstition shaped month lengths The lost 13th month you’ve probably never heard of And why our modern calendar is still basically Roman If you’ve ever wondered why the calendar feels broken… it’s because it kind of is.
