The Romans had festivals to celebrate and to get a break from the daily routine. The most important reason for a lavish festival, however, was to honor some god or goddess. People had to stay on the good side of certain deities if they wanted to prosper as individuals and if they wanted the state to prosper, so they had festivals with set rituals and festivities to insure this prosperity.
