PhoneArena wishes you a massively epic New Year's Eve!
Julius Caesar - "I decree you... to a New Year's party!
Before Numa did his thing, the new year began in March, and there was only 10 months in the Roman calendar. But the king introduced January and Februrary so that the counting of years would check out with the empire's brand new solar calendar — a major upgrade over the ageing lunar system that had turned inaccurate over the years.
However, Jan 1 was not strictly adhered to as the start of a new year, which meant some in the empire still celebrated on March 1. It was no other than emperor Julius Caesar to decree (in 45 B.C.) that the new year would occur in January 1, period. Thus, the entirety of the Roman world partied on January 1 from there on, and as you can see, this fine Roman tradition has prevailed over the years!
Enough history talk. Let's celebrate and enter a bigger, prosperous year 2016 like we mean it!
Yours,
the PhoneArena Team
