The month in which the Gregorian Calendar was adopted, because when it was proposed in 1582, there was a difference of 10 days between it and the earlier Julian calendar, and that difference had grown to 13 days by the time that the last countries adhering to the Julian Calendar (Greece and Russia) switched over to the Gregorian Calendar. Because of the "loss" of between 10 and 13 days, the month in which a particular country adopted the Gregorian Calendar might not have had a full moon.

Is February 1865 the only month in recorded history not have a fullmoon?
The short answer is no. February 10 1865 was a full moon. There can however be months without a full moon. Since the moons synodic cycle(the time between 2 identical phases) is about 29.53 days it stands to reason that any month with fewer than 29 days (only February) could go by without a full moon (or any specific lunar phase for that matter). As long as January ends with a full moon, and the moon just begins to wane before 12:00 am on February 1st it will not have time to complete the 29.53 day cycle before midnight on February 28th. Thus the month passed with no full moon. This happened in 1999.
Why do you see the full moon only once a month?
The moon takes one month to complete a revolution around the earth. A full moon occurs when the moon is on the opposite side of the earth from the sun (opposition). The full moon can only happen at this part of the lunar orbit, and it takes one month to complete the orbit; thus, full moon happens once a month.
