Emperor Claudius wanted the soldiers of Rome to be devoted to their country, so he passed a law that disallowed them from marrying the person they love. But, Saint Valentine started to marry the soldiers in secret places and performed secret Christian ceremonies, this was the start of how he builds his reputation during the rule of Emperor Claudius, he was known for believing in the importance he gave to love.
