Best Answer

1400 is a leap year in the Julian calendar, which was in use in Europe at that time. However, it is not a leap year according to the Gregorian calendar, the one we use today, because although 1400 is evenly divisible by 4 it is also evenly divisible by 100 and not evenly divisible by 400.

No, leap years in the middle of a century are evenly divisible by 4, like 1640 and 1644. That's true for the Julian calendar and the Gregorian calendar, both of which were in use in the world in 1642.

yes, but in the 1500's they discovered that every hundred years it should not be a leap year unless it is divisible by 400 as well.
