Did you know: There were 14 days missing in September 1752.

In 1752 Britain decided to abandon the Julian calendar in favor of the Gregorian. By doing so, 3 September instantly became 14 September - and as a result, nothing whatsoever happened in British history between 3 and 13 September 1752. This was done to adjust extra days introduced due to the wrong leap year logic earlier.
