'''1 January''' was '''[[New Year's Day]]''' and the first day of the year on [[Earth]].
==Holidays and observances==
As the first [[day]] of the [[year]], 1 [[January]] was celebrated as New Year's Day. The year began with this day because, in [[BC|46 BC]], [[Julius Caesar]] decided he'd start it on the shortest of all days — but when the priests complained, he made a compromise and used the first new moon ''after'' the shortest day of the year. This ended up being 1 January. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Cross Word (short story)}}, {{cs|Time Traveller's Diary (novel)}})
Depending on the [[timestream]], 1 January marked several New Year's Days in a row on the [[planet]] [[Apalapucia]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Time Traveller's Diary (novel)}})
