Sorry, but you don't specify, 'what' you want to know about. But, I can assume it is probably about the date, or Christmas.

Date wise: 'BC'

Such as 100BC, is a timing system. Right now, we are in 2011 AD, and 2,011 years ago, we were in 0AD. 2 years before that, we were in 2BC, and 2 years before that, in 4BC. This is all based around the birth of Jesus. BC stands for 'Before Christ'... And so, it has been, exactly, 2,011 years since Jesus was born.

Christmas:

What does Christmas have to do with Jesus' birth? Everything! Christmas (combined from 'Christ' and 'Mass') celebrates the birth of Jesus, and we give presents to each other, because that is what happened to Jesus, on the day of his birth.
