1150 was a common year in the Julian calendar. This means that it had 365 days and was not a leap year. Not only was it a common year, but it also started on a Sunday.
The Julian Calendar was a calendar reform by Julius Caesar in Rome, introduced in 46 BC. The Julian Calendar divided the year into 365 days and 12 months, with a leap day every 4 years.
Although the Julian calendar is still used in some places the Gregorian calendar has almost completely replaced it throughout the world.The Julian calendar had a leap year every four years. The problem is that this has a year that is slightly too long. To fix this problem, the Gregorian calendar added exceptions. In the Gregorian calendar, the rule is this:Every year that is exactly divisible by four is a leap year, except for years that are exactly divisible by 100; the centurial years that are exactly divisible by 400 are still leap years. For example, the year 1900 was not a leap year; the year 2000 was a leap year.There are still some Orthodox parishes in eastern Europe which still use the Julian calendar. Greece was one of the last Western countries to convert to the Gregorian calendar, in 1925. The isolated Greek monastic community on Mount Athos retains the Julian calendar. Berbers in North Africa still use the Julian calendar for agricultural purposes.
In the bigining the The Prophet Enoch (Henok) calendars were used until Julian calendar took over it and then Gregorian calendar emerged at the year of 16 century.
The Gregorian Calendar is an almost identical improvement on the Julian Calendar. The names of the months and the number of days per month are the same. The only difference is that the Gregorian Calendar has three fewer leap year days out of every 400 years. The Julian Calendar averages 365.25 days per year, and the Gregorian Calendar averages 365.2425 days per year. It doesn't seem like much, but after using the Julian calendar for 1 1/2 millennia the accumulated error totaled about 10 days.
A Julian year is the same as a calendar year. We use a Gregorian calendar instead of a Julian calendar and have 3 fewer leap years every 400 years. Some Orthodox Churches follow a Julian calendar. They celebrate Christmas later than other Christians.
2012 in the Julian calendar is a leap year that begins on a Saturday and ends on a Sunday. 1 Jan 2012 in the Julian calendar is 14 Jan 2012 in the Gregorian calendar.
The Julian calendar was named after Julius Caesar, not a figure named Julian. Introduced in 46 BCE, it was part of Caesar's reforms to the Roman calendar, aimed at aligning the calendar year with the solar year. The system replaced the previously used lunar calendar and established a 365-day year with a leap year every four years, significantly improving timekeeping in Rome.

The Julian calendar was replaced by the Gregorian calendar to address inaccuracies in the calculation of leap years. The Gregorian calendar introduced a more precise leap year rule to better align the calendar year with the solar year, reducing the discrepancies that had accumulated over time.

Yes, beside securing January 1st as the first day of the year, the only difference between the Gregorian and Julian calendars is that in the Julian calendar every 4th year is a leap year, but in the Gregorian calendar the 100th, 200th and 300th years of every 400-year period are not leap years. Every 400 years is only three days shorter in the Gregorian calendar than in the Julian calendar, but that makes it about 25 times more accurate.
