All Tomanians understand and know the Gregorian calander and year system of the world. They still cling to their ancient dating system. Unlike the Gregorian they do not have a solid year, i.e. 2001, 2002, 2003, etc. Instead it begins with the "year of the reign of..." Example. 2005 would be 5 Corana in Ishtar (5th year of the Reign of Ishtar).
Loa - 1 year- 365 days, However every 12 years the month of Enderi is five days and not three, therefore, every twelfth year there are 358 days in 1 year.
