{{Tsrwotc}} In the ''[[World of Greyhawk]]'' [[campaign setting]], the '''Common Year''', or '''CY''', is the basis of the common calendar. Years occurring before the Common Year are denoted with negative numbers, or are sometimes listed as "BCY" (Before Common Year). There is no Common Year zero (0 CY), as the reckoning began with the first year, 1 CY, which must be accounted for when converting other systems of reckoning years prior to 1 CY, such as the [[Flan Tracking]] (FT, also known as the [[Flan]] Tally), [[Suloise Dating]] (SD, also known as the [[Suloise]] Dominion), [[Oeridian Record]] (OR, also known as the Oeridian Reckoning), [[Baklunish Hegira]], (BH, also known as the [[Baklunish]] Hierarchy), or the [[Olven Calendar]] (OC), Days, weeks and months within the Common Year are reckoned using the [[Greyhawk Calendar]]. ==History== The Common Year Reckoning is an [[Oeridian]], specifically an [[Aerdi]], creation, and replaced the Oeridian Reckoning. The Common Year was established as the system of reckoning by Grand Prince [[Nasran I]] of the [[Great Kingdom of Aerdy]] in 645 OR (1 CY), when he declared universal peace throughout his the land, and took the title of [[Overking]]. ==References== *[[Gary Gygax|Gygax, Gary]].
