The History of St. George's Day? 

St. George was a Roman soldier and Christian martyr who lived during the 3rd century. His legendary slaying of a dragon symbolizes the triumph of good over evil.

By the 4th century, George was venerated as a saint in Eastern Christianity. By the 9th and 10th centuries, Western Europe also began to celebrate his feast day on April 23rd, the date believed to be the day of his death.

During the Crusades (11th–13th centuries), St. George became especially popular among English soldiers, who adopted him as a symbol of bravery and faith. By the late Middle Ages, April 23 became a feast day to honor St. George. It symbolized English identity and values, celebrated with parades, feasts and church services.

In England, St. George was declared the patron saint by King Edward III in the 14th century, and his emblem—the red cross on a white background (St. George's Cross)—became England's national flag.

By the 15th century, April 23rd was widely celebrated in England with church services and parades.
