January 1 has opened the year since the Romans, who gave the month to Janus, the two-faced god of doors and beginnings who looks back to the old year and ahead to the new. Most of the world now counts its years by the Gregorian calendar, and New Year's Day is a holiday nearly everywhere.

The celebrations start the night before, at midnight, and roll west around the world with the clock - from the islands of Kiribati first to American Samoa last.
