=='''Calendar'''== The standard calendar of the Kingdom of Amber has 12 months of 28 days. Each month has 5 weeks of 7 days. At the beginning of each of the 4 seasons is a seasonal week of 7 days that belong to the season, but are separate from the months. There is a single stand-alone day at the beginning of the year called variably First Day, New Year's Day, Off Day, or King Finndo's Day. ===Winter=== The Winter months are '''Janus''', '''Februo''', & '''Mars'''. The Winter Week is The '''In Halls''', and is celebrated with indoors festivities and arts and crafts, foods, gift giving, and sleeping. It is a week that often involved blacksmithing. The Third Day of Winter Week is called the King's Day and was a favorite of King Oberon's. ===Spring=== The Spring Months '''Aperire''', '''Maia''', & '''Juno'''. The Spring Week is generally considered a week for intensive yearly cleaning. "Spring Cleaning" *The Repair was done during the Spring Week of 5201. Since then the Celebration of Queen Margot is held unofficially on the second day of Spring Week. ===Summer=== The Summer months are '''Julio''', '''Augustus''', & '''Spetem'''. The 7 day Summer Week is called Midway. It also features a large number of military festivals including ones sponsored by the [[CCC]] called the Sunbright. ===Autumn=== The Autumn months are '''October''', '''Novem''', '''Decem'''. The Autumn Week is the beginning of many harvest activities and festivals. ===First Day , Festivals,and Holidays.=== *'''First Day''' is a holiday of peace and is considered a day of truces where foes can safely gather. The day is called King Finndo's Day as a joke about King Finndo's reign the origins of which are nearly forgotten. *'''Birthdays''' of family members tend to be celebrated during the seasonal weeks even if a monthly date can be determined.
