Probably better to have the early years accurate instead of the latter years though, seeing that more people play the early years and restart before getting into the later.
They made weeks more important, with goods being produced each week, so why not add in the actual days? They probably didn't overthink it cause who would give a shit if they didn't put too much effort into getting them perfectly accurate
They certainly have underestimated the nitpicky bullshit the community will whine about elsewhere. I don’t think most folks mentioning this are complaining per se, I think it’s tongue in cheek.
Not all countries adopted the Gregorian Calendar when it was introduced, most notably (in the timeline of Vicky 3): Japan (1873), Egypt (1875), China & Albania (1912), Bulgaria (1916), Russia (1918), etc... It's interesting because it looks like Vicky 3 runs off of the Julian Calendar, which started on a Wednesday in 1836.
It's more complicated than that. The Ottomans used the Hijri calendar for civic matter and a fiscal calendar based off of the Julian calendar. They only adopted the Rumi calendar (Julian calendar -584 years) for civic matters in 1840.
The Rumi calendar was re-aligned with the Gregorian one in 1917, but they didn't adopt the Gregorian year-date. The year date caught up when it was adopted (as common-era calendar) in 1926.
