It does this so you can make the days of the week line up to the proper date. OOTP does not recognize leap years; this means that after awhile the days of the week no longer line up to the proper date for a given year.

This isn't an issue if you don't care that Oct. 7, 2005 might be a Tuesday or Sunday in the game when in reality it should be a Friday. But if you do care, then you need to adjust the day in the Year Starts On value to bring the days and dates back into line.

There was a little text file posted in the Mods forum some time ago which listed what Year Starts On value to use for each calendar year from 1860 to 2080, or thereabouts.
