Carnival

Hello friends!
I was in poor health for 1 week, and perhaps I am late in some topics that I want to share with you, I hope you have fun with the information x

CARNIVAL

The merrymaking and festivity that takes place in many Roman Catholic countries in the last days and hours before the Lenten season. The derivation of the word is uncertain, though it possibly can be traced to the medieval Latin carnem levare or carnelevarium, which means to take away or remove meat.
The carnival in Binche, Belgium, is not as famous as some of the others, but it may have the longest history. It dates back to the 14th century. Up to 1,000 men and boys, called ‘Gilles’, dress up in masks, costumes and wooden shoes. They also wear very tall feather hats, up to 90cm tall.
The first day of Carnival varies with both national and local traditions. Thus, in Munich in Bavaria the Carnival season, there called Fasching, begins on the feast of the Epiphany (January 6), while in Cologne in the Rhineland it begins on November 11 at 11:11 am (11th month, day, hour, and minute).
