Historical calendars are often grouped into larger categories by cultural sphere or historical period. In Classical Antiquity, the Hellenic calendars inspired the Roman calendar, including the solar Julian calendar introduced in 45 BC. Many modern modifications of the Julian calendar /from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia/. Julius Caesar introduced the reforms of calendar. Julius Caesar was Roman emperor. Julius Caesar instituted the Julian calendar in 45 BC.

Peter the Great opened the window on the West in 1700. He ignored the old tradition and introduced the Julian calendar that started with the approximate date of birth of Jesus Christ. Peter ordered to celebrate the New Year on January 1.
That calendar was not perfect and exact. By the start of the 20th century the Julian calendar was 13 days behind the European (or Gregorian) one.

Russia accepted the Gregorian calendar in 1917 and still observes it now. In the Gregorian calendar, years are counted from the birth of Christ.
All human societies have developed ways to determine the length of the year, when the year should begin, and how to divide the year into manageable units of time, such as months, weeks and days. The year consists of 12 months. They are January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, November, December.
