- Although not officially recognized by all nations, the Imperial Calendar is the most commonly used system by which the years are measured. The year 0 was the year in which the Empire was officially founded which often leads to confusion as some believe this date to be prior to The Three kingdoms war in which the Kingdom of Haram existed. Unfortunately the precise date of the kingdom's founding is unknown and so it is placed at the beginning of The Three kingdoms war (3 B.F.). Every date prior to the year 0 is known as _ B.F. meaning "Before Founding" and every date after is _ A.F. meaning "After Founding".

- The Imperial Calendar is the calendar widely used in the Empire.
- The Imperial Calendar is of great importance and influence in the Empire. It allows the common folk to count the passing days and prepare for the festivals. It allows for historical events to be recorded and contextualised in time. It allows men who have never met to agree on reliable dates that they both understand. In short, it is the cog around which the machinery of the Empire revolves. Without standardised, measured time, everything would soon collapse into confusion.

| - The Imperial Calendar is of great importance and influence in the Empire. It allows the common folk to count the passing days and prepare for the festivals. It allows for historical events to be recorded and contextualised in time. It allows men who have never met to agree on reliable dates that they both understand. In short, it is the cog around which the machinery of the Empire revolves. Without standardised, measured time, everything would soon collapse into confusion. Most people believe that divine Sigmar, first emperor of the united tribes of Man, formed the Imperial Calendar. The dating system splits the 400-day year into twelve months of 32 or 33 days, and includes six important festival days, each of which lie between the months. The months are further divided by eight-day weeks, which bridge the months uninterrupted, even if a week is broken by one of the intercalary festivals. However, although Sigmar was involved with its creation, the truth of the calendar’s genesis is more complex, and far older than the Empire’s patron.
