April Fools' Day: A Global Celebration of Pranks and Mirth

April Fools' Day is an annual custom where people play harmless pranks and hoaxes on each other, often shouting "April Fool!" to reveal the joke. The origins of the day are unclear, but it is celebrated in many Western countries and has a long history of playful deception. From Armenia to Iran, and from Italy to Ireland, April Fools' Day is a lighthearted tradition that brings people together.
