How do I handle month-end when calculating a date many days ago? โ–พ

Can I use subtracting many days ago to plan events in the past accurately? โ–พ

Because some countries adopted it later than others, historical date calculations can differ by up to 13 days depending on which calendar was in use at the time. For modern dates, the calculation is always straightforward: one day is exactly 86,400 seconds.
