St. George is the patron saint of England. He is the patron of soldiers and archers, cavalry and chivalry, of farmers and field workers, Boy Scouts and butchers, of horses, riders and saddlers. He is also the patron saint of Aragon, Catalonia, Genoa Georgia, Germany, Greece, Istanbul, Lithuania, Moscow, Palestine, Portugal, and of Venice (second to St. Mark). According to legend, St. George, a soldier of the Imperial Army, rescues a town in what is now Libya from the tyranny of a people-eating dragon. St. George overpowered the beast and then offered to kill it if the townspeople would convert to Christianity and be baptized. The story is that there were 15,000 conversions on the spot. Openly espousing Christianity was dangerous and eventually the authorities of Emperor Diocletian arrested George. He was martyred about 303 AD.  3, record 3, English, - St%2E%20George%26rsquo%3Bs%20Day

Le 23 avril, c'est La Saint-Georges (George, Jordi). Généralement, ce personnage est plus connu que sa fête, pourtant, dans certaines régions et certaines villes, le 23 avril est un jour important. En 1995, l'UNESCO décrète ce jour : «Journée Mondiale des Livres et des Auteurs» en s'inspirant d'une tradition catalane qui voudrait que le libraire offre une fleur, généralement une rose rouge, à celui qui achète un ouvrage et le fleuriste un livret à qui lui achète des fleurs. «La Journée du Livre Espagnol» a été instaurée en octobre 1926 et déplacée au 23 avril en 1930, Cervantès étant mort un 23 avril. Et étrangement, par association d'idées, en Catalogne, l'on fête les amoureux, non seulement à la Saint Valentin, mais également à la Saint-Georges, ce dernier ayant sauvé des griffes d'un dragon une jeune Princesse, sorte de gage d'amour ...  2, record 3, French, - La%20Saint%2DGeorges
