Standard Human Chronology

The Standard Human Chronology (SHC) is widely used across many civilisations and cultures, however, many cultures have independently created their own system of chronological measurement and use their own calendar. The Standard Human Chronology was initially developed by early human cultures as Humans began recording ideas via written text.

The Standard Human Year
Standard Chronology is measured using the following units (in order of shortest to longest):

1 second (indivisible)

1 minute (60 seconds)

1 hour (60 minutes)

1 day (24 hours)

1 week (7 days)

1 season (91 days, 13 weeks)

1 year (4 seasons)

Seasons
A season is a division of the year marked by changes in weather, ecology and hours of daylight. The four seasons are Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring in chronological order. Summer begins on the 1st day of the year. A year ends on the 91st of Spring.

Ages
The Standard Human Calendar sorts years numerically in terms of Ages. An age is an indeterminate number of years. It is the one of the primary purposes of the Order of Chronology to declare when ages begin and end, usually following an event which alters the nature of the world.

Dating
Dates are organised in the order of: (Season)(Day),(Year), (Age).

eg, Summer 1st, 1042, 4th Age.

Days of the Week
The 7 days of the week are (in chronological order):

Restus

Salus

Julus

Abrus

Yarus

Benedus

Andrus

Weeks are cyclical, with Restus coming after Andrus.
