Fastelavn is the name for main Carnival in Denmark.
The holiday is generally considered to be a time for
children's fun and family games - but it evolved from
the Roman Catholic tradition of celebrating in the days
before Lent. After Denmark became a Protestant nation,
the holiday became less specifically religious.
