It is the ‘standard’ in both the Republic and the Empire for basic measurements. However, there are many, many variations for various species, planets, etc. This is just the ‘standard’ used; similar to measurements of weight, etc. Basically, this is not the ‘only calendar’ but the one used most often by governments, the military, etc. to be the ‘standard’. I thought it might be useful for people writing or roleplaying in the Star Wars galaxies to have a rough idea.NOTE: There is mention in some sources of a 12 month/368 day calendar, but it doesn’t mention length of weeks, months, etc. other than ‘30-31 days’ so basically seems to be a ‘real life calendar’. I’m not 100% sure which is considered ‘canon’ so I choose to list the one that was a bit more ‘different’ for fun.SOURCEShttp://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Galactic_Standard_Calendarhttp://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Fete_Weekhttp://swtor.wikia.com/wiki/Galactic_Standard_Calendarhttp://starwarsrp.net/topic/63474-resourse-galactic-standard-calendar/This would have beEN SO HELPFUL SIX YEARS AGO!!!Adding the months…The 10th Months :1st month : Elona2nd month : Kelona3rd month : Selona4th month : Telona5th month : Nelona6th month : Helona7th month : Melona8th month : Yelona9th month : Relona10th month : Welona -- source link
