    Isn't Santa Claus just made up by Coca Cola to sell more stuff? I just know it has something to do with it, but don't care enough to look it all up.

    Coca cola made him red. His suit was green imo but they changed it to match the color of their product. And now everyone thinks Santa has always been red.
    That's a lot of power If you ask me.

    Christmas is celebrated just like everywhere else here, on the night of the 24th.

    We call him 'Papa Noel' here, though, not Santa.

    Aurora and Maelstrom are right. Père Noël is a product form the Coca Cola company. Or just the red color.
