The month of Germinal (from March 21-April 19) in the French Revolutionary calendar, from ca. 1798. The calendar was implemented between 1793-1805 in order to purge as many religious and monarchical aspects from culture as possible and to make the calendar more “rational.” Time was kept in 10-hour days, with each hour consisting of 100 minutes.{WHF} {HTE} -- source link
