French revolutionary calendar

The French Revolution in 1789 was initially known as the 1st Year of Liberty. When the monarchy was abolished on 21 September 1792, the 4th year became 1st Year of the Republic. This calendar was formally adopted in October 1793 but its usage was backdated to 22 September 1793, which became 1 Vendémiaire. The calendar was discarded from 1 January 1806.
