We take the predictability of the calendar for granted. But we may have felt differently if we were living under the rule of Julius Caeser.
September was the seventh month of the ancient Roman calender. The time before Julius Caeser the calenders began with March. But when Caeser took control he moved the calander and January was the first month. You can kind of figure this out because the word part ``nov`` means nine and ``oct`` means eight ``dec`` means ten
The month of July is named after Julius Caeser. The word Julius means ``july`` in Latin.
So the next time someone asks you what the first month of the year is, its best to say ``Is that a trick question?``
