Can a single year last for 15 months?

Have you ever felt like a year was dragging on forever? In ancient Rome, one year actually did—lasting a staggering 445 days. By 46 BC, the Roman calendar was a broken mess. Based on lunar cycles, it had drifted so far from the solar year that winter festivals were happening in the summer. Julius Caesar knew he had to fix it. This video explores the 'Year of Confusion.' To implement his new 365-day Julian Calendar, Caesar first had to realign the Roman timeline with the sun. He did this by cramming three extra leap months into a single year, creating a 15-month marathon. It was an exhausting period for Roman citizens, but this drastic temporal reset laid the foundation for the calendar the entire world relies on today. If you enjoy mind-bending facts about how humanity shaped time and history, this one's for you.
