Years, months, weeks, and days in Tian Xia.

[Dandielion]

I have a Kitsune character originally from Tian Xia who keeps a journal of his adventures. I've been wanting to move his backstory into a more journal like format, but other than using the Imperial Calendar I'm not sure how the eastern calendar differs from the western calendar. Many of the western gods are fairly unknown in the east. Sarenith for instance would probably be called something else because Sarenrae is relatively unknown. Also, would the days of the week be the same? I'm probably thinking into this way too much, but I've become very attached to this character and would like to keep an accurate account for him.

Thanks in advanced.

I don't think there's an official version.

If you wanted to invent one based on traditional eastern calendars on Earth, you could start from something like this:

Years: Year of the Dragon, Year of the Rat, that kind of thing.
Months: Use lunar months. Day one of each month is when the moon goes dark.
Weeks: Do not exist.
Days: Just count the day of the month.
Timekeeping: There are twelve hours of daylight between sunrise and sunset, and then twelve hours of night. The hours change length to match the length of the day/night. This encourages the development of some fairly elaborate clocks.

Edit: I just found something official. Imperial Calendar
