A Modern Xi'an year (short: MXY) is exactly 1.28 Standard Earth Years.[1] Xi'an refer to their calendar in their "Imperial Age" , followed by a "imperial year."
In a forum post, it was stated that a Xi'an day was exactly 1.28 Earth Days, implying that the Xi'an also have 365.25 days in a year. This has not been referenced elsewhere outside of this post.[2]
New Calendar
The new calendar epoch began in I.0 (19668 BCE SEY) as a result of the Great Divide: the Xi'an homeworld was destroyed and the remaining Xi'an migrated to their only remaining planet, Ka'ua and crowned the first Emperor of all Xi'an. Since then the calendar counts forth until a next Imperial Age is announced. In case of a new house get in power, the current Imperial Age (era) ends and the calendar us reset to "year 0".
