The Julian Calender. It was so called from Caius Julius Caesar, who conceived and put it into practice.
The name of Caesar's calendar was the Julian calendar. It was replaced in 1582 by the Gregorian calendar, which we used today.
Julius Caesar's calendar is called the Julian calendar. Introduced in 45 BC, it was a reform of the Roman calendar and consisted of 365 days divided into 12 months, with an extra day added every four years for leap years. The Julian calendar was widely used in Europe until it was replaced by the Gregorian calendar in 1582, which corrected inaccuracies in the Julian system regarding the solar year.

We changed from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar because it was out of synch with the solar calendar.

However Germany did not until 1700 and Great Britain waited until 1752. Russia did not change until 1918.
