Titania calendar

The Titania calendar, also known as the Faerish calendar, is the calendar used in Alfheim and by Faefolk in general. It was named in honor if High Queen Titania and is the earliest known adopted calendar. Years 0 and beyond are initialed YQ, which stands for Year of the Queen, in reference to Titania.

The calendar is a season calendar with eight months and seven-day weeks, two months each corresponding to the seasons, meaning the 1st of each odd month is the first day of Spring, Summer, Autumn & Winter. As such, Faerish New Year is Trisca 22nd on the Solramese calendar.

The days of the week are a relatively modern addition to the calendar. They were added to sync the calendar to the days of the week of the Solramese one.

Hylarene calendar

The Hylarene calendar is the calendar system used by the High Elven Empire of Hylar. It is not only used in Hylar, but us also the preferred calendar used by most sovereign elven states.

Miao calendar

The Miao calendar (妙曆/Miao li) is the calendar used by the Miao people throughout Tianchao, Dongbalian and related countries.

It was invented by Miao astronomers during the waning years of the Chang dynasty. The inventors of the calendar used the ascension of the Huangdi Chuangjian, the first hunagdi of the Qiang dynasty, to mark the beginning of the common era, so years prior are tagged TJQ (天下於即位前/Tianxia yu Jiwei Qian/Before the Enthronement of Tianxia), while years since are tagged TJH (天下於即位後/Tianxia yu Jiwei Hou/After the Enthronement of Tianxia). The reason for this is because it was believed that becoming Huangdi of Tianchao made that person the ruler of the world.

The calendar has twelve months and has eight days per week. The months are between 30-32 days long.

Solramese calendar

The Solramese calendar was first adopted at least four thousand years after the lifetime of the first seven lunaculi. Created by astronomers during the reign of Solram I, founder of the Kingdom of Solram, an ancient state once resting in northeast Eurodysia, founded in the wake of the Fall of the Zedylrian Empire.

The calendar was first adopted several years after the inauguration of the Kingdom of Solram – one of several empires that emerged out of the chaos that resulted in Zedylria's destruction – and uses the widely acknowledged year of Zedylria's end as start year, marking the first year and all years after as AFZ (After Fall of Zedylria), thus making years prior BFZ (Before Fall of Zedylria). The creators of the calendar viewed the Fall of Zedylria as a major turning point in history, and so used the year the empire fell as the base for the calendar, thus marking the year Zedylria fell as 0AFZ. All the names of the months were also made from the names of a few deities from the old Zedylric Pantheon.

This calendar was at first only used by the Solramese Kingdom to supplant the old calendar used by Zedylria, but has since been adopted by the majority of Qirsyllviar. Even while the Kingdom of Solram has ceased to exist, it remains one of the most popular calendars of Qirsyllviar.

The Solramese year lasts for twelve months, ranging 30-32 days each, and weeks last for seven days.

Teikoku calendar

The Teikoku calendar (帝国暦/Teikoku-reki/Imperial calendar) is the calendar used by the Genjin people throughout the countries of Fuso and Yamatai's dependencies. The calendar was adopted during the reign of Uruoi-tenno (潤い天皇); personal name: Mikado Keikenna no Kumo (神門敬虔なの雲), and uses the coronation year of Ganzo-tenno (元祖天皇); personal name: Mikado Keikenna no Taiso (神門敬虔なの太祖), the first Tenno of Fuso, and thus the Idai dynasty, as its beginning.

Years prior to and after adoption of the calendar are referred to as ZIO (前偉大王朝/Zen Idai Ocho/Before Idai Dynasty) and IIO (以来偉大王朝/Irai Idai Ocho/Since Idai Dynasty).

The Teikoku year lasts for twelve months, ranging 30-33 days days each, and weeks last for seven days.

Xotilic calendar

The calendar used by the Xotilic Empire.

Notes & Trivia

• A Qirsyllvian day is 28 hours long with standard-length hours, minutes and seconds.
  • A Qirsyllvian clock's face has 14 numbers:
    • 14:00 is noon and midnight.
    • 7:00 is equivalent to real-world 6:00.
    • 3:30 is the first quarter point and 10:30 is the third quarter point.
• The days of the Solramese week are prefixed with either Latin or Greek words.
  • Coloday. Language: Latin. Meaning: Worship
  • Ergoday. Language: Greek. Meaning: Work
  • Drasiday. Language: Greek. Meaning: Action
  • Iterday. Language: Latin. Meaning: Travel
  • Typoiday. Language: Greek. Meaning: Ceremony
  • Ludoday. Language: Latin. Meaning: Play
  • Pafsiday. Language: Greek. Meaning: Rest

• With the year differences:
  • For calendars adopted before the Solramese calendar, add the difference to get the equivalent year.
  • For calendars adopted after the Solramese calendar, subtract the difference to get equivalent year.
• For the ease of equivalent calendarial date matching, leap years do not exist in any Qirsyllvian calendar system.
• While the days of the week of the Solramese and Teikoku calendars are more or less in sync despite not being lined up, the days of the week of the Miao calendar are often out of sync with the former two because of the extra day.
  • The Miao calendar's first day of the week, Xiaoyaori, lines up with the Solramese calendar's Coloday once every 8 Solramese weeks = 7 Miao weeks. The same is true between the Miao and Teikoku calendars.
    • Example: Trisca 11, 4531AFZ fell on a Coloday; Shuyue 1, 4952TJH, the equivalent month/day/year, fell on a Xiaoyaori, one of the rare times the beginning of both calendars' weeks line up on Miao New Year. The two days of the week didn't line up again until Niuyue 26th/Windoni 5th.
