One Piece Calendars – What Is Their Significance?
Before we begin the One Piece timeline, it is important to know the two calendar systems in One Piece. The first is the Age of the Sea Circle and the second is the Age of Heaven. The Age of the Sea Circle was used around 400 years ago by Mont Blac Noland. The calendar started in 1120. Using this calendar, it will seem that the current time is the 16th century. Moreover, some believe that this calendar is similar to the Gregorian calendar. On the other hand, the Age of Heaven is used to recite Arabasta history. The difference between the Age of Heaven and the Age of the Sea Circle is that it is unclear how days and months are divided in the prior calendar and it does not match any world timeline.
