The origin of New Year's Day

(1) During the prosperous era of Yao and Shun more than 4,000 years ago, Emperor Yao was diligent in his work and did many good things for the people, and was very much loved by the people.
(2) Before his death, Emperor Yao passed the throne to Shun, a man of both virtue and ability, and said to Shun: "You must pass on the throne well, so that I can rest in peace after my death."
(3) Later, Shun passed the throne to Yu, who had made great contributions to flood control. Yu, like Shun, was close to the people and did many good things for the people, so he was very loved by the people.
(4) In order to commemorate Emperors Yao and Shun, people regarded the day when Emperor Shun offered sacrifices to heaven and earth and the previous Emperor Yao as the beginning of the new year, and called the first day of the first lunar month "New Year's Day" or "Yuan Zheng". This was the original name of New Year's Day in ancient times.
