Did you account for the switch from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar?
Don’t worry if you didn’t, this has tripped up a number of apocalyptic religious cults as well, they had to rewrite their time tables to Doomsday when somebody pointed it out to them.
But yeah, basically, 10 days got wiped out of conceptual existence in the uh, great time refactor of 1582. … and more confusingly, it wasn’t like, globally adopted at the same time, so, sometimes, in some places, adoption resulted in the nullification of 11, 12, or 13 days.
No, I used the proleptic Gregorian calendar, so if you want to count sunrises you can just add 10 days. Historians use it for simplicity and accept the drift.
