Monday, 1 January 2024 2024 is a leap year with 366 days. Leap day is added to the end of February every four years, making it 29 days long. Leap years and days keep the calendar in sync with the seasons as the Earth takes about 365.2422 days to orbit the Sun. The rule to determine a leap year is that it should be divisible by four, except if it is divisible by 100, unless it is also divisible by 400. February was chosen as the month for leap day due to Julius Caesar's reforms.

This Day in History: , Julius Caesar Is Assassinated.
March 15, 44 B.C.
The Ides of March.
As Caesar entered a hall
adjacent to the Theatre of
Pompey, he was surrounded by
several Roman Senators yielding daggers.
In the ensuing attack,
the Roman dictator was
stabbed 23 times, including
by his protege, Marcus Brutus.
Caesar's final words — said to be in
response to the sight of Brutus
among the assassinators —
are recorded as "You too, child?".
Led by Cassius Longinus, the
conspiracy to assassinate Caesar
included as many as 60 nobleman.
It stemmed from his
tensions with the Senate,
and his recent appointment
as "dictator in perpetuity.".
His death is widely
considered the beginning
of the end of the Roman Republic
