The Gregorian Calendar has become the standard civil calendar used worldwide. It was introduced by Pope Gregory and took hundreds of years to be accepted as a global standard. Before that, the Julian Calendar, introduced by Julius Caesar, was the civil and religious calendar used in Christian lands. The Julian Calendar is still used in the Eastern Orthodox Church and a few other places. The Jewish Calendar, Islamic calendar, Hindu Calendar and Chinese Calendar all serve to set the dates of festivals celebrated by their respective communities, as well as being used for various other purposes. Various indigenous groups around the world may also have calendars, but to be a formal calendar and not merely a way to recon time, it needs a system of recording dates, which is to day, calendars are for literate cultures. One important calendar is left out above: The Mayan calendar. It is no longer in use, having been forcefully replaced by the Gregorian Calendar when the Conquistadors invaded, but it has been decoded, and you can find software to convert between Gregorian and Mayan dates.
