Bachan calendar
The Bachan calendar is a sunnean calendar made of 11 months divided into 30 days, except the last month which has 31 days, for a total of 331 days. Each month is divided into 3 weeks of 10 days.
It went into effect in Qym following a royal decree issued by King Bacha I in 1930. It was later adopted by other countries in Meran throughout the centuries and eventually throughout Basis following the SOME INTL TIME CONVENTION in 2322.

Most religions on Basis have a designated one holy day during the week. In Sunneism and Mōnaïsm, it is on the day of Mōna, while in Scildism and Ānism, it is on the day of Basis. In Manigism, they do not have a weekly holy day, but rather celebrate the Last Day of the Year as their holy day, representing a new cycle.
