Fun fact, there's also a Jewish calendar used by many Jews around the world alongside the international calendar. The Jewish calendar is both solar and lunar, and according to it the year is 5,787

March being the first month is why the September to December are named after the numbers 7-10 rather than 9-12

March being the new year actually makes so much sense for seasons in the UK and now I’m mad the new year isn’t March.

In the numbering of Hanville Svetz, the time traveler from Niven's stories, it's 71 AA, or Ante Atomic - they counted years from the detonation of the first atomic bomb in 1945 CE. Svetz hails from around 440 AA, as I recall. (He's supposed to use the extrnsion cage to collect extinct animals. What he didn't realize for quite a while was that every time he went back past the invention of the extension cage, he'd wind up in one or another fantasy world, because until the cage existed, time travel was fantasy. He went for a gila monster and caught a dragon; his trip to find a dog got him a werewolf; and in the very first story, "Get a Horse!", he was sent for a horse but found a unicorn.

In Saudi Arabia we mostly use the gregorian calendar. Except for some official government business, or when it's around Ramadhan
