Year
1900
(
MCM
) was an
exceptional
common year starting on Monday
(link will display the full calendar) of the
Gregorian calendar
, but a
leap year starting on Saturday
[1]
of the
Julian calendar
. The Gregorian calendar was 12-day faster until Wednesday,
Template:OldStyleDate
, but 13-day faster since Thursday,
Template:OldStyleDate
, than the Julian calendar.
- Year 1900 was a Julian
leap year
but not in the
Gregorian Calendar
(year was not divisible by 400), which caused Julian dates (used in Russia until
1919
) to slip 13-days behind, after leapday 1900.
