How do these two compare?

Are the years the same length and if so does that mean the months are shorter to accommodate the 13th month.

And what strange & wondrous astronomical and/or astrological oddities occur between the two? If any?

It says in the Faiths of Eberron that the Qabalrin Wheel year is one month longer than the Galifar year. I take this to imply that those who follow the Galifar year mark the passage of time missing a month. I'm also assuming that they do not yet know that it may take Eberron 13 months to finish its revolution around its sun.

Oh, I almost forgot. The Qabalrin Wheel calendar ends at 1012 YK. I hear House Phiarlan is making a play about the world ending on that year. :P

My theory is that the authors of Faiths of Eberron didn't think things through.
