The history of Valentine's Day (V-Day) is really covered in mystery. But how did this romantic holiday come about? There are 3 ideas that are commonly accepted when discussing the history of St. Valentine's Day (which is the correct term for the famous holiday).

The first legend, (and the most commonly accepted) claims that St. Valentine was a priest during the third century in Rome. Emperor Claudius II believed that single men were better fighters than married men and those with families, so he outlawed marriage for young men in order to make them better soldiers. The priest, Valentine, disagreed with Claudius and continued to marry young couples. When he was discovered Claudius was infuriated and ordered that Valentine be put to death.

Another theory exists that on February 14th, a holiday to honor the Queen Juno of the Roman Goddesses, was created. Juno was the Goddess of women and marriage to the Romans. Juno was the Queen of the Roman. The next day, a the festival of Lupercalia started and the tradition was that the names of Roman women were written on a piece of paper and placed into a vase. Each man would choose a name and that woman was the man's partner for the duration of the festival.

Nothing is known about the third Christian, St. Valentine, except that he died somewhere in or near Africa
