What is the origin of April Fools' Day?

1. The "Festival of Fun" (March 25) in ancient Rome and the "Fools' Day" (December 28) in medieval Europe are regarded as the predecessors of April Fools' Day.
2. According to legend, the first person to associate April 1 with fooling others was the famous English poet Chaucer. In his 1392 work "The Canterbury Tales", a conceited rooster was fooled by a fox on this day. Although some scholars disagree with this view, ordinary readers generally accept it. In the 16th and 17th centuries, some European poets and writers also mentioned in their works that on April 1
Playing pranks to fool people.
3. In 1564, King Charles IX of France decided to adopt the newly reformed calendar: the Gregorian calendar (the universal solar calendar), with New Year's Day as the beginning of the new year, changing the past practice of April 1 as the beginning of the new year. But some conservatives opposed this reform and still gave New Year gifts and celebrated the New Year on this day according to the old calendar. Reformers ridiculed these practices of the conservatives, giving them fake gifts and inviting them to fake parties. From then on, the tradition of playing pranks on this day became popular. When a person is fooled, the person who plays a trick on him will shout out "POISSON D'AVRIL", which means "April prank". Clever and funny people send them fake gifts and invite them to fake receptions on April 1st. And called the deceived conservatives "April fools" or "baited fish." From then on, people began to fool each other on April 1st, which became a popular custom in France. In the early 18th century, the April Fools' Day custom was introduced to Britain and then brought to the United States by early British immigrants.
