The French Republican Calendar

The French Republican Calendar

In 1792, the people of France overthrew their monarchy and established the French Republic. The leaders of the French Revolution didn’t just want to change the French political system, they wanted to radically overhaul French culture and society as well. That extended all the way to the very calendar which was used to keep track of time. Learn more about the French Republican Calendar, how it worked and why no one uses it today, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
