history of valentine`s day!!!
Legend has it that da holiday became Valentine's Day after a priest named Valentine. Valentine was a priest in Rome at da time Christianity was a new religion. The Emperor at that time, Claudius II, ordered da Roman soldiers NOT 2 marry or become engaged. Claudius believed that as married men, his soldiers would want 2 stay home with their families rather than fight his wars. Valentine defied the Emperor's decree n secretly married da young couples. He was eventually arrested, imprisoned, n put da death.
Valentine was beheaded on February 14 th, the eve of da Roman holiday Lupercalia. After his death, Valentine was named a saint. As Rome became more Christian, the priests moved da spring holiday from da 15th of February to da 14th - Valentine's Day. Now da holiday honored Saint Valentine instead of Lupercus.
