At first, there is some history of little is known of Patrick's early life.
At the age of sixteen ,he was kidnapped by Irish raiders.
It's believed he was held somewhere on the west coast of Irish.
A ccording to his confession, he was told by God in a dream.
Originally,the colour associated with Saint Patrick was blue.However,over the years the colour green and its association with Saint Patrick's Day grew .Green ribbons and shamrocks were worn in celebration of St Patrick's Day as early as the 17 th century. He is said to have used the shamrock,a three -leaved plant,to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish,and the wearing and display of shamrocks and shamrock-inspired designs have become a ubiquitous feature of the day.In the 1798 rebellion,in hope of making a political statement,Irish soldiers wore full green uniforms on 17 March in hopes of catching public attention.The phrase the wearing of the green to wear a shamrock on one's clothing,derives from a song of the same name.
Outside,in Argentina and especially in Buenos Aires,all-night long parties are celebrated in designated streets,since the weather is comfortably warm in March.People dance and drink only beer throughout the night,until seven or eight in eight in the morning,and although the tradition of mocking those who do not wear green does not exist,many people wear something green.In Buenos Aires,the party is held in the downtown street of Reconquista,where are several Irish pubs,in 2006,there were50,000 people in this street and the pubs nearly.Neither the Catholic Church nor the Irish community,the fifth largest in the world outside Ireland,take part in ,the organization of the parties
