That statement is only correct for countries where the Church of England was 
predominant: Great Britain and colonies of the British Empire in e.g, North 
America (later known as US of A). Alaska changed later when Russia sold it to 
the US.

Catholic countries such as Italy, Spain, Portugal, and France adopted the 
Gregorian calendar 170 years earlier. For Germany it gets really complicated 
and depends on county, kingdom, and the current religion of sovereign.
