Sakuran Calendar

The Sakuran Calendar, or Sakurakitochi Hananotochi in Sakuran, is the calendar used by the region in Plagos known as Sakura or by its people as Sakurakitochi. As at 04/05/2022, the Sakura time in lore was Kazokuōki, SKE 22, compared to Stoneworks standard calendar summer 146 AJC (After Jagdas Crisis).
During the Sakuran Cultural Revolution (Saiganaōki SKE 9 to Saiganaōki, SKE 11), the previously informal calendar used by the people of the lands after their discovery of the sacred blossom tree Attakhaihen Sakuraki was formalised into the Sakuran Calendar. It was formalised by a team lead by then Mujanaibu-Sakuratochi Shujin, the Minister for Sakuran Internal Affairs Alexander S. Numachi, then a young politician in his mother Lady Aisuru Numachi's government.
It is unique in that it revolves around the lifecycle of the sacred Attakhaihen Sakuraki tree that is worshipped within Sakura. The denomination for the year date is SKE, which is an abbreviation from Sakuran, Sakuraki Kiomitsuke Etanochihu, which translates roughly as "years after finding the holy tree". The accurate calendar was backdated by Alexander Numachi to begin on the first day of the first month of the first year, the day the Sakura province was founded, Keiseihi 1 Sanchōki, 0 SKE, the formation of Sakura province. Thus, Keisehi 1 Sanchōki, 0 SKE is equal to summer 50 AJC.
There are 60 Chijihuha, or seconds, in a Ninuha, or minute, 72 minutes in a Dainuha, or hour, and 20 Dainuha in a Hihuha or day. This means that there is the same amount of time in a day as a conventional Rathnir day, it is just counted differently. 'Ōkihuha or months vary in length, with either 90 or 105 day months making up a 1095 day year, and simultaneously represent consistent seasons, as the Attakhaihen Sakuraki always blossoms at the same time on every day of each Sakuran year, every third year for AJC. It is designed to reflect the uniquely long seasons in Northern Plagos. Each month has a name with a meaning, ōki is the ending for the months in Sakuran, taken from Ōkihuha, month. and the part before that holds meaning relevant to what occurs in that month. A year in Sakuran in Etanochi.
The most important day of the year is the 7th day of the 7th month, Seinaruōki. It is known as Attakhai Shinenkaba and is the mid-year celebration of the height of the blossoming of the sacred, holy Attakhaihen Sakuraki trees.
All months have 90 days, except Seinaruōki. The list is as follows, through the year:
