<p>
|
|
The Seth Calendar was invented by <strong>Seth Freiberg</strong> in 2026 as a personal design project,
|
|
born out of frustration with the irregularity of the Gregorian calendar — unequal month lengths,
|
|
weeks that don't divide months evenly, and no clean mapping between days and dates.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The goal was a calendar with a simple, regular structure: 10 months of exactly 36 days,
|
|
each month divided into 6 weeks of 6 days, with a small block of holiday days at the year end
|
|
to absorb the remainder. Year numbers and the January 1 new year are kept from the Gregorian
|
|
calendar to stay compatible with the existing world.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Decimal time was paired with it for the same reason: the standard 24-hour clock is an arbitrary
|
|
Babylonian inheritance. Dividing the day into 10 hours of 100 minutes of 100 seconds gives a
|
|
fully base-10 time system that is easier to reason about and calculate with.
|
|
All units in the Seth system — months, days, hours, minutes, seconds — are zero-indexed.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Credit is due to the <strong>French Republican Calendar</strong> (1793), which pioneered both ideas:
|
|
a reformed calendar with equal 30-day months and 5–6 complementary days at year end,
|
|
and a decimal clock dividing the day into 10 hours of 100 minutes of 100 seconds.
|
|
The French system was officially used from 1793 to 1805 before Napoleon abolished it.
|
|
The Seth Calendar was designed independently in the same spirit, with a different month structure
|
|
and the addition of zero-indexing throughout.

<summary>About Seth Date</summary>
|

<div class="seth-note">
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Seth Date</strong> uses the same year numbers and January 1 new year as the Gregorian
|
|
calendar. The year is divided into <strong>10 months of 36 days each</strong>,
|
|
followed by <strong>5 auxiliary (intercalary) days</strong> at year end (H0-H4, always 5).
|
|
All units are <strong>zero-indexed</strong>: months 0–9, days-of-month 0–35.
|
|
Time uses the same decimal system: 10 hours, 100 minutes, 100 seconds per day.
|
|
The Seth second is derived from the Unix second (which equals the SI second, leap seconds aside)
|
|
at a fixed ratio: <strong>1 Seth second = 0.864 SI seconds</strong> (86,400 SI seconds per day ÷ 100,000 Seth seconds per day).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Leap Day</strong> (Gregorian Feb 29) is a special intercalary day that exists
|
|
<em>outside</em> the normal month structure. It is inserted at day-of-year 60, between
|
|
day 22 and day 23 of Month 1. After Leap Day the calendar resumes unchanged, which is why
|
|
every Seth date from March 1 onward falls on the same Gregorian date every year
|
|
(e.g. Christmas is always Month 9, Day 34). On the calendar it appears as a split cell:
|
|
the top half is day 22, the bottom half is Leap Day.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Date notation:</strong> dates are written as <em>day.month</em> (day-of-month first, zero-indexed).</p>
