St. Patrick's Day
    St. Patrick's Day is a Irish holiday. Probably most of you never heard about it before. So today I am going to tell you about its tradition and where it comes from.
    St. Patrick's Day was first established in Ireland. People celebrate it because they want to people to remember their protecting god St. Patrick. St. Patrick save people in Ireland at and gave people all the good things at about A.D. 400. Also at that time, people didn't believe in any religion or faith and they were not organized well. He spread ideas of Christianity and made a lot of people become Christians. Then their country became better because of this.
    Now people celebrate it each year on the seventeenth of March, people use the color green to represent his great personality and the things he did before. Also Ireland decided to put this date as their national day also. We can see how important it is to them by this.
    But in my country, we don't have this holiday, so I didn't know about it before and some of my details in here might not be accurate. But I learned more about other country's culture and I am very glad to hear it.
