Other uses
While Ethiopia officially uses UTC+03:00, Ethiopian culture follows a time system with two 12-hour cycles for day and night, and is 6 hours "slower" than the official time. The day begins with the day cycle at sunrise (6:00 a.m., but designated as 12 o'clock by local rendition) till sunset, followed by the night cycle (official 6:00 p.m., unofficial 12:00 night cycle). Therefore Ethiopia effectively follows UTC-03:00. [5]

gollark: Interesting fact: the term "high" (in the sense of impaired due to drugs and whatever) is actually derived from the way people experience oxygen deprivation and go slightly weird at high altitudes.
gollark: It doesn't actually exist.
