Valentine's Day, February 14, is observed worldwide as a day of romance and affection. Named after Saint Valentine — a 3rd-century Christian martyr — it has evolved into a major commercial holiday celebrated globally.
Saint Valentine was a Roman priest executed around 269 CE for marrying Christian couples in defiance of Emperor Claudius II. The romantic associations emerged in the High Middle Ages, popularized by Geoffrey Chaucer's poetry. Mass-produced Valentine cards date to the 1840s in Britain and the US.
