The Baklunish Hegira (abbreviated BH) calendar is a method of counting the years among the Baklunish people. It dates itself to the mythic Hegira, when the war between Light and Darkness forced the first emperor of the Baklunish Empire and his family to cross the desolate Tyurzi Mountains into the Baklunish Basin, defended by the hero Azor'alq from the minions of Darkness.
Year 1 in the Common Year (CY) calendar is equivalent to 2660 in Baklunish Hegira calendar. -1 CY is equivalent to BH 2659.
