Video Overview
Script: Ever wondered why February is so short? Picture this: ancient Rome, a time of power struggles and astronomical miscalculations. Julius Caesar steps in with a bold plan to fix the chaotic Roman calendar. He introduces the Julian calendar, adding days and a leap year to align with the solar cycle. But there's a twist—his changes weren't perfect. Over centuries, small errors accumulated. By the 16th century, the calendar was ten days off! Enter Pope Gregory XIII, who cuts those days to restore balance. Next time you flip your calendar, remember—it’s a tapestry woven from centuries of trial and error.
