Calendar & Time
#1
Sioran International Date and Calendar
Universal Time

Universal Time is the primary time standard used on Siora, derived from various atomic clocks positioned across the globe that measure the passage of proper time on the planet's geoid. UT mainly measures the passage of seconds, which be additionally broken down into days, hours, and minutes. It is most compatible with the Universal Calender, which is the modern development of the Theodorian Calender.

A second itself is defined as "the duration of 9192631770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom at rest at a temperature of 0°K."

International Standard Calendar

The Universal Calendar is itself the successor of the Theodorian Calendar, which itself was a development of the Old Lanlanian Lunar Calendar. It was created to fix an issue with the Theodorian Calendar which caused it to fall out of sync with the planet's revolution around the sun over the centuries.

The Universal Calendar divides the revolution into 14 months of 28 days each, generally ignoring the lunar cycles that formed the basis of its ancient predecessor (though, there is still some overlap). The Universal Calendar—and, indeed, Universal Time as a whole—ignores the solar day, instead choosing to tolerate the minor discrepancies between Solar Time and Atomic Time and focusing on the passage of time--the period between two events.

This has lead to the hours of sunlight differing slightly at various points in the year, though to largely negligible extents.
