Mars Calender

Mars Calendar 668 martian days.
This calendar conceived by Randy Derric, There is no moon to define months, so Calendra of 42 or 41 days are used to break up the year. There are 16 calendra. The First of Lowell falls on the perigee of the Martian orbit. 
 
The week is retained because we Humans like that rhythm to our lives. It is however noted that the names of the days of the week can be subject to change.
The Derric Calendar was requested in the Document of Consent of the United Parties of Olympic City. This is it they have stopped messing with it.
