Time

Time in the world of Avaria flows similarly to that of Earth, with a year of 365 days and distinct seasons that nevertheless vary from one region to another. Avarian time also has a direct 1:1 correspondence to real time (US EST or EDT), though the standard calendar used by most Avarians in the hemisphere makes use of distinctly named weekdays and months. The Avarian New Year also begins on April 1st, after an eleven-day spring equinox festival season.

Months of the Year

The same basic calendar is used across much of the known world, with twelve months of 28-31 days that correspond to real-world months. The names of the months differ between the two most widely used calendars, the Sirdabi and the Kalentoi, but they nevertheless share the same zodiacal signs. The Sirdabi calendar is used throughout the lands of the caliphate and also across portions of northern, central, and northeastern Idiri. The Kalentoi calendar is not only used throughout the empire but across virtually the whole of Ruvera.

There are seven days in each week, again corresponding to the real-time week. The days of the week are named for the most important celestial bodies in the Avarian sky, and are uniform across the known world.
