Is october the eighth month of the year in any country?
Not any more, but it was the eighth month in the Old Roman calendar.
Why is Month called a month?
The word 'month' is a noun, a word for any of the twelve divisions of a calendar year; a word for a thing.The noun 'month' is a common noun because it is a general word for any month of the year.A common noun is capitalized only when it is the first word in a sentence.First invented and used in Mesopotamia, it is a natural period related to the motion of the moon. Month and moon have the same common origins.

What did the Julian calendar have?
The Julian calendar has the same month names, the same year numbering, and the same number of days per month as the Gregorian calendar. Aside from making New Year's Day the same around the world (1 January), the only difference between the calendars is that in any 400-year period the Gregorian calendar has three fewer days than the Julian calendar. In the 400-year period that began on 1 January 2001, the three days that are part of the Julian calendar but not part of the Gregorian calendar are 29 February 2100, 29 February 2200 and 29 February 2300. The Julian calendar accumulates one day of error every 128 years. The Gregorian calendar accumulates one day of error every 3200 years.
Why is September the ninth month if Septem means seven and why is October the tenth month if Octo means eight did the Romans change the calendar?
Answer 1FebMar (1)Apr (2)May (3)Jun (4)Jul (5)Aug (6)Sept (7)Oct (8)Nov (9)Dec (10)The ancient Roman Calender started in March and as you can see this means the Roman Months names Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec, make much more sense. (the other months were squeezed in later)._________________________________________________Answer 2Septem does indeed mean seven and octo does indeed mean eight.That means, logically, September should be the seventh month instead of the ninth and October should be the eight month instead of the tenth.Similarly, decem is Latin for "ten", yet December is the twelfth month.In the past, September WAS the 7th month and October WAS the 8th month (and December was the 10th month), up until 45BC.Julius Caesar, the dictator of the Roman Empire, tried to fix the somewhat broken calendar of his time, because it didn't fit too well with the seasons. So, Caesar came up with and enforced a new calendar. It was called the Julian Calendar, aside from altering how many days were in some of the existing months, it also introduced two new months at the start of the year, January and February. Before then, March was the first month of the year.Adding two new months meant that the ones below were pushed downwards. Therefore September became the 9th month and October became the 10th month.To celebrate this "amazing feat", the Roman Senate voted to name one of the months after Caesar. Hence the month called Quintilis (quintus means "five" in Latin, as it used to be the 5th month) was renamed Julius, later becoming July.Later on, the month called Sextillus (sex means "six" in Latin) was renamed Augustus, as an honour to Caesar's grand-nephew of the same name. Augustus later became August.Other Roman Emperors did in fact try to rename the other months, because their Latin number names made no sense any more (and some months were named after Gods no longer worshipped. March = Mars and April = Aphrodite).Maius (May) was changed to Claudius and Aprilis (April) was changed to Neronius, for example, but they didn't stick and only lasted a short time. The only months named after Roman emperors that stuck and are still used today are July and August.Before 45BC the calendar was:MartiusAprilisMaiusJuniusQuintilisSextilisSeptemberOctoberNovemberDecember.From 45BC the calendar was:JanuariusFebruariusMartiusAprilisMaiusJuniusJuliusAugustusSeptemberOctoberNovemberDecember.
