Question
The Julian Calendar introduced by Julius Caesar was the calendar that most countries used in the West for a long time. But the Julian calendar erred because it introduces an error of 1 day every 128 years. So that, in every 128 years the tropical year shifts one day backward. Who rectified this error and created the modern calendar?
