About Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, IANA: Europe/London) is the historic and current civil time of the United Kingdom (during winter), Ireland (during winter), Portugal mainland (during winter), Iceland (year-round), and most West African countries. GMT is set at UTC+0 — the time on the Prime Meridian (0° longitude) running through the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, southeast London. Established as the global time reference by the 1884 International Meridian Conference in Washington DC, GMT served as the world's primary civil-time reference from 1884 until 1972 when UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) was adopted as the new precision standard. The UK switches from GMT to British Summer Time (BST = UTC+1) at 01:00 GMT on the last Sunday of March and back to GMT at 02:00 BST on the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC (UK retained this schedule after Brexit). GMT affects: London Stock Exchange (LSE) trading hours, BBC World Service broadcast time-stamps, all aviation NOTAMs and weather METARs which use UTC = GMT, and ICAO + IMO worldwide maritime/aviation coordination.
About Venezuela Time (VET)
Venezuela Time (VET, IANA: America/Caracas) is the official civil time of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, set at UTC-4:00 year-round. Venezuela abolished Daylight Saving Time long ago and the country has had a complicated time-zone history — in 2007 President Hugo Chávez moved Venezuela from UTC-4:00 to UTC-4:30 (a 30-minute offset, citing benefits to schoolchildren's morning light), then in 2016 President Nicolás Maduro reverted the country back to UTC-4:00 (citing energy crisis and need to better coordinate with regional neighbors). VET serves approximately 28 million people across Venezuela's 23 states + Federal District + Federal Dependencies. Major cities: Caracas (3M city, 5M metro — capital), Maracaibo (2.3M), Valencia (1.4M), Barquisimeto (1.1M), Ciudad Guayana (900K). VET is the same offset as Atlantic Standard Time (AST), making coordination with Puerto Rico, USVI, Bermuda, and Canadian Maritime provinces in winter relatively straightforward. Affects: Bolsa de Valores de Caracas (BVC) operations, PDVSA petroleum-export shipping schedules, and Angel Falls tourism in Canaima National Park.
