New Year’s Day is a time of resolutions and starting fresh for some, while for others it is spent recovering from a big, late night spent with friends and family.
Interestingly, New Year’s Day didn’t always come on the first of January. The older version of the Roman calendar had 15 March as the first day of the year, but it was moved to 1 January in 153 BC.
