The three best presidents of America (my opinion, of course) were all born with in the same week:

George Washington Feb. 11th

Abraham Lincoln Feb 12th

Ronald Reagan Feb 6th

In the most famous example, Russia's Bolshevik Revolution of November 1919 is known as the October Revolution because Russia was still using the Julian calendar.

1919 --> 1917.

In the autobiography of Casanova, he recounts visiting with Catherine the Great and giving her the arguments for converting to the Gregorian calendar. I guess he wasn't persuasive enough.

Both dates would need to be in the same year, either 1731 or 1732, but not both. There has never been more than two week’s difference between the Julian and the Gregorian calendars.
