Between September 2 and September 14, 1752, Britain transitioned from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar, resulting in the loss of 11 days. To align with the rest of Europe, September 2 was followed directly by September 14, causing significant confusion and protests among the populace, who feared they had been robbed of their days. This calendar reform was part of a broader effort to correct inaccuracies in the dating of the year. The change was officially adopted to improve trade and communication with countries using the Gregorian system.

What happened on September 3 1752?
In England and America, September 3, 1752, never happened. Actually, September 3rd through the 14th never happened. Up until that time, the countries were using the Julian calendar, which calculates the time between the vernal equinox as 365.25 days. But in 1752 a decree was made in Britain that the Gregorian calendar was going to be adopted. The length of a year in the Gregorian calendar, which was introduced in 1582 by Pope Gregory XIII, is 11 minutes shorter than the Julian calendar. To make up for the time difference between the two calendars and get back in step meant having to "lose" 11 days. The announcement of the change caused riots on both sides of the Atlantic; people thought the government had stolen 11 days of their lives.
