Coca-Cola actually invented the image of the modern Santa Claus for a advertising campaign in 1931.
That´s pretty much all i know about the legend of Santa.

Here in Austria we have a so called "Christ Kindl" , translated - "christ-child".
i remember my grandmother saying: "This year there won´t be any presents, the russians shot the christ-child"
