Католического или протестантского : Since pre-historic times in Europe, festivities (bonfires, offrerings) were marking the beginning of longer hours of daylight with fires and ritual. The Roman festival of Saturnalia lasted several days in December (gambling and offerings). Germanic tribes also celebrated mid-winter (drinking and rituals). The Bulgarian (with Koleduvane) and the Polish (with Gwiazdka) perpetuate this tradition. Jesus of Nazareth was probably born in springtime (Reformists favour autumn). But in the 4th century, December 25th was chosen for the celebration of his birth by Pope Julius I (Bishop Liberus is also mentioned in 354 A.D.). Thus, a Christian element was introduced in the long-established mid-winter festivals. Before 1582, the Papal States and other Italian city states celebrated New Year’s Day on Christmas Day.

Католического или протестантского : The First Council of Nicaea (a gathering of bishops in the early days of Christianity) wanted to find a day to commemorate the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. This commemoration had to be linked to Jewish holiday traditions, since the last supper of Christ was believed to be a Jewish Passover meal. But the Jewish calendar is based on lunar and solar cycles, so the Easter celebration had to follow the same calendar.

Культура : Шотландия славится своей любовью к мифам и легендам и долгой историей, поэтому неудивительно, что такое легендарное существо, как единорог, является национальным животным Шотландии. Единороги были связаны с Шотландией на протяжении веков. Хотя животное является мифологическим, идеалы, которые оно представляет, делают его идеальным животным в качестве национального животного Шотландии, и потому, что, как и этот гордый зверь, шотландцы будут сражаться, чтобы остаться непокоренными. Единорог был впервые использован на шотландском королевском гербе Вильгельмом I в 12 веке. В 15 веке, когда у власти был король Яков III, появились даже золотые монеты с единорогом на них. Когда Шотландия и Англия объединились под властью Якова VI Шотландского в 1603 году, у Шотландского королевского оружия было два единорога, поддерживающих щит. Когда Яков VI стал Яковом I Англии и Ирландии, он заменил единорога слева на щите национальным животным Англии, львом, чтобы показать, что страны действительно объединены.

Светский праздник : The Bank of England observed about 33 saints' days and religious festivals as holidays, but in 1834 this was reduced to four May 1 (May Day), November 1 (All Saints' Day), Good Friday and Christmas Day. In 1871, the Bank Holidays Act 1871 was introduced. It stated that no person was compelled to make any payment or to do any act upon a bank holiday which he would not be compelled to do or make on Christmas Day or Good Friday. 100 years later the Banking and Financial Dealings Act 1971 was passed, specifying the majority of the current bank holidays, although New Year's Day and May Day were not introduced throughout the whole of the UK until 1974 and 1978.
