In History, Birthday celebrations started with Pharaoh and was only mentioned in connection with Royality. Evidence of birthday observances dates back before the rise of Christianity. In pagan cultures, people feared evil spirits - especially on their birthdays. It was a common belief that evil spirits were more dangerous to a person when he or she experienced a change in their daily life, such as turning a year older. As a result, birthdays were merry occasions celebrated with family and friends, who surrounded the person of honor with laughter and joy in order to protect them from evil. Instead of gifts, most guests brought positive thoughts and happy wishes for the upcoming year. However, if well-wishers did bring gifts, it was considered an especially good influence for the birthday person.

Although historians are certain that people have observed their birthdays for quite some time, there are few records of such celebrations that still exist. Of these few descriptions, only those birthdays of kings, high-ranking nobility, and other important figures have been documented. Common people and especially children never celebrated their birth when the idea came about
ction with royality. or.............

It was a worldwide consortium of greeting card manufacturers and florists in the 12th century. Related to the Illuminatti and the Knights Templar, the consortium now controls the worldwide birthday, valentines day and mother's day industry along with steel, oil, and defense industries, as well as several central American and central Asian governments.

The consortium is chiefly responsible for the industrialisation of society, increasing the CO2 in the atmosphere, the resultant melting of the icecaps due to global warming, ultimately causing our demise. or.......... Albert Einstein together with Thomas Alva Edison...

I certainly agree that the greeting card industry is now out of control, but I doubt that it started seriously in the 12th century!
