Why was 46 BC called the year of confusion?
At that time, the Romans used a lunar calendar of about 354 days. As a result, intercalary months have to be inserted every so often to keep the calendar roughly on tract with the seasons (just like the Jewish calendar today). Since 52BC only 1 intercalary month had been inserted leading to the effect that by 46BC the calendar was off by 67 days. To correct the calendar to get it back to the vernal equinox occurring on (or about) 25 March, 2 intercalary months (of 33 days and 34 days) were inserted between November and December 46BC making the year 445 days long. Caesar then did the calendar reform which upped the days of the months to get the year to 365 days with a leap year every 4 years (starting 1 Jan 45BC) - the Julian calendar which was then later refined into the Gregorian calendar to correct for the leap years by making centuries leap years only if evenly divisible by 400.

What Was the first leap day ever celebrated?
Leap Day, on February 29, has been a day of traditions, folklore, and superstitions ever since Leap Years were first introduced by Julius Caesar over 2000 years ago. However, the specific tradition of celebrating Leap Day as a special occasion appears to have varied cultural origins. For instance, in Scotland, a law was passed in 1288 permitting women to propose to men on Leap Day. On the other hand, the idea of creating a festival to celebrate Leap Day was proposed in 1988 in Anthony, on the Texas–New Mexico border. So, while the concept of a Leap Day has been around for over two millennia, the specific traditions and celebrations associated with it have evolved over time and differ across cultures.

What is the history of April Fools' Day?
April Fool's Day is a day when people like to play harmless tricks on their friends and family. Most of the time, we know we are not supposed to tease others, but tricks that make everyone laugh are acceptable on April 1. How on earth did this tradition get started? Would you believe it had to do with changes to the calendar? Back in 46BC, Julius Caesar revised the Roman calendar used at that time. He instituted leap year, adding an extra day to February every four years, but it wasn't strictly followed. Caesar Augustus made corrections again in 8BC; we get the month "August" from his name. In the 4th century, Emperor Constantine reformed the calendar by introducing the seven-day week. Even after all of these changes, the year was still not coinciding with the seasons: the beginning of Spring was falling in early March by the 16th century. So in 1582, Gregory XIII revised leap year again and deleted 10 days from the month of October. Imagine going to sleep the night of October 4 and waking up-the very next day-on the morning of October 15! Another problem Gregory saw was the observance of the New Year. Julius Caesar had recognized it as January 1, but over the years, different countries grew to observe different days. Some celebrated it on February 1, some on March 1, and still others on Easter. The church celebrated New Year's on March 25. People would celebrate for 8 days-until the first day of April. To avoid confusion, Gregory XIII made a decision that was handed down through the ages: New Year's Day would be observed on January 1. Some people were opposed to this change, and some didn't even learn that there was a change until years later, and so they continued to celebrate New Year's from March 25 to April 1. Those that celebrated the "new" January 1 New Year made fun of the people who continued to hold celebrations for those eight days. They called them "April Fools," sent them false invitations to New Year's parties, and played tricks on them.
