    Interesting how many (mostly Slavic) countries adopted the Roman calendar but decided to use their own names. I would assume that in the earlier Slavic calendars the months wouldn’t begin on the same days, even if they had months as such.

      With Polish for example, we have 2 month that are currently named after Roman calendar, even thought all 12 of our months used to have their own names

    Shouldn’t Poland be light blue, like the stripes in Belarus? Doesn’t seem to match the rest of the green areas.
