Calendar
This is by no means a complete list. What I did was select some of the most important holidays from a variety of cultures, religions, civilizations, and countries. Some holidays such as those found in the Jewish Tradition or Christian tradition can vary in day so much that they alter months. So, I've just decided to balance things out and put them in one spot. If you think something would be more reasonable somewhere else, tell me.
