Well done Sooibrand but as it is majority rules I get to do a :cheer:

Priests in the Roman Empire liked to insert days and months into the calender to extend the terms of politicians who gave them favourable treatment. Since the Roman calender had only 10 months with 304 days, it did not cover the entire span of the seasons and there was room for extra segments of time. However, not all these politicians were allies of Caesar. When Caesar decided he had had enough, he constructed a calendar that spanned the entire year and made sure the politicians' terms ended on time.

Burger King is owned by Hilton Hospitality, Inc.

Fiction. Used to be British owned but it's now owned by a company in Texas.

The Pillsbury Company purchased Burger King in 1967. Since then, the number of Burger King locations has frown from 274 to 11 400 worldwide. Pillsbury is part of General Mills, Inc. which owns many recognized brands, including Bisquick, Progresso, Yoplait, and Häagen-Dazs.
