Holidays following the 12th month of the French Republican Calendar
The Sansculottides (French pronunciation: [sɑ̃kylɔtid] ; also Epagomènes ; French : Sans-culottides, Sanculottides, jours complémentaires, jours épagomènes ) are holidays following the last month of the year on the French Republican calendar which was used following the French Revolution from approximately 1793 to 1805.
The Sansculottides, named after the sans-culottes , append the twelve, 30-day months of the Republican Calendar with five complementary days in a common year or six complementary days in a leap year , so that the calendar year would approximately match the tropical year . They follow the last day of Fructidor , the last month of the year, and precede the first day of Vendémiaire .
Each of the Sansculottides were assigned as one of the ten days of the week . Even though the five or six days were less than a full week, the following 1 Vendémiaire would still be a primidi , skipping four or five days of the week. The Sansculottides belong to the summer quarter. They begin on 17 or 18 September and approximately the end on the autumn equinox , on 22 or 23 September on the Gregorian calendar .
