Unlike most other holidays, April Fool's Day, or sometimes All Fool's day, has a fairly£¨·Ç³££© foggy£¨Ä£ºý£© history.

£  There is no "first April Fool's Day "that can be pinpointed£¨²éÃ÷£©.£  Some believe it evolved in several cultures at the same time. The closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition is 1582, in France.

£ £ Prior£¨ÔÚ¡­¡­Ö®Ç°£©to that, the new year was celebrated for eight days, in the spring, beginning on March 25 and ending on April 1. New Year's Day was moved to January 1, when Charles ¢ù of France introduced the Gregorian Calendar £¨ÑôÀú£©in 1564.

£ £ However, communications being what they were in the days when news traveled by foot, many people did not receive the news for several years.

£ £ Others refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the new year on April 1.These "backward£¨ÂäºóµÄ£©folk£¨ÈËÃñ£©"were labeled£¨ÌùÉϱêÇ©£¬³ÆΪ£© as "fools" by the populace£¨Æ½Ãñ£©.

£ £ This troublesome behavior evolved over time into a tradition of prank-playing£¨¶ñ×÷¾ç£© on the first day of April. The tradition spread to England and Scotland in the 18th century. April Fool's Day then developed into an international day of fun.
