-- This module stores the data for Module:Japanese calendar. The formatting is as follows:
---
-- {
-- article = "Shōwa (1926–1989)", -- The Wikipedia article about the era.
-- startYear = 1926, -- The year that the era started.
-- endYear = 1989, -- The year that the era ended.
-- kanji = "昭和", -- The kanji for the era.
-- label = "Shōwa" -- The romaji for the era, if the article name is disambiguated.
-- },
---
-- The "label" field may be absent some or most of the time, and the "article" and "kanji" values
-- may be set to "" (the blank string) if it is a period between era names.
-- See Japanese era name for more details on era names and how they correspond to
-- Gregorian calendar years.
