I think some European king redid the calender take it up with. Also it's winter in the northern hemisphere during the new year but summer in the southern. There is no short answer to your question, try looking up the history the of the calender, there's a ton of info on the subject.

Down through history, the start of the new calendar year has varied. If you look at the Constitution of the U.S. as originally written, you will find that stuff started in March, not in January as it does now.
In many cases, the New Year is to start when the days start getting longer - the rebirth of the year leading to spring - so in late December after the winter solstice.
