What fun?
Article Abstract:
Parties can be important as commercial events, and can raise large sums for charity. Celebrities can help make parties successful, and media rights can be used to raise funds. Louis XlV, former king of France, held a very grand party in 1664 to launch Versailles. Early humans held large parties annually, despite living in small groups and funding mates and trading were opportunities offered by these gatherings. Parties can help develop business relationships, though they are less enjoyable if they are dominated by business.
