| In Dominions, the year ends in Midwinter (the first instance being Turn 10); we know this because this is when [[Age]] is incremented. A turn is roughly the same as a moon or a month. So which turn is assigned to which stage of the season, you might wonder? Well, January and February were originally at the end of the year (this is why February has only 28 days, by the way); assuming this holds true, a Dominions calendar looks like this: | In Dominions, the year begins right at the start of the middle of winter, (the first instance being Turn 10), known in-game as just "Winter"; we know this because this is when [[Age]] is incremented. A turn is roughly the same as a moon or a month. Thus, a Dominions calendar roughly looks like this: |
