The word “March” (Marzec<\/strong>) comes from the Roman “Martius”. This was originally the first month of the Roman calendar and was named after Mars, the god of war (B\u00f3g wojny Mars<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

March was the beginning of the calendar year. We changed to the “new style” in 1752, and it is only since then when the year began on January 1st.<\/p>\n
