The New Universal Calendar is a proposal for a total reform of the internationally accepted Gregorian Calendar, Based on Julian Calendar (see about calendars). NUCAL Is a regular, easy to remember, non religious and non anti-religious stable way to organize time segments. NUCAL consists of 13 month each of 28 days and 4 weeks of 7 days, there is also a day not belonging to any month called Years Day.
THE NUCALENDAR YEAR
NUCALENDAR WEEK
NUCAL compared to Gregorian Calendar- Every month has 28 days
- All months have 4 equal weeks of 7 days
- Every month starts on a holiday Monday
- Every month ends in a Sunday
- Each month is divissible by 2, 4 and 7
- Each year starts on a holiday Monday
- Each year ends and starts with 4 consecutive holidays
- The names of the days of the week are multicultural
- The names of the months promote Human Rights
- The Centuries are coincidental with year digits
- There are no negative dates (b.C.)
- The day starts in the morning not in the midnight
The Eras system
There are 3 eras in NUCAL:
- The Era of History (EH) Starting on 10.001 b.C.
- The Era of Sapiens (ES) Starting on 100.001 b.C.
- The Era of Mankind (EM) Starting on 1,000.001 b.C.
For example year 2018 is:
12018 (EH) and 112.018 (ES) and 1,112.018 (EM)
12018 (EH) and 112.018 (ES) and 1,112.018 (EM)
2018 is comprised in the 120th Centuria of the (EH) Era
No negative dates anymore. Very simple!
Rules of NUCAL
- The days of the week are 7
- Each an every month has 4 weeks
- So all months have 28 days
- There are 13 months on a year
- Week Days are named after the Continents
- Months are named after basic Human Rights
- Every month starts with a holiday named after a right or ideal
- The Calendar starts with the Winter Solstice
- The last day of the year is called Years Day
- Years Day does not belong to any month is a Holiday
- In leap years there is an additional holiday after Years Day
- Last day in leap years is called Second Years Day
- Every day starts at 6:00 AM in the morning
- Every day ends before 6:00 next morning
- So there is always one day and one night per day
International NUCALENDAR name of the days of the week based on Continents
Rational NUCALENDAR day starting and ending hours versus present system
The NUCALENDAR does not stop in days counting, it is a proposal for a total reform in various aspects of Calendars and time counting in general. NUCALENDAR proposes the use of the Three Eras System to refer dates.
The first Era system is the Era of History, based on the Holocenic Era of notable italian geologist Cesare Emiliani:
The Era of History EH starts its counting in the year 10,001 b.C. (B.C.E) this is arbitrary and serves the purpose for an easier conversion. To convert from Gregorian to EH just add 1 to the left. I.e. 1500B.C.E is 11500EH.
The Era of Sapiens ES starts its counting in the year 100,001 b.C. (B.C.E), to reffer dates prior to those included in the Era of Mankind. To convert from Gregorian to EH just add 11 to the left.
And finally the Era of Mankind EM starts in the year 1,000,001 b.C. (B.C.E). To convert from Gregorian to EH just add 111 to the left.
