When is your country's national day?

Today, February 6th, is Waitangi Day, the National Day of my country, New Zealand. This day is the national day because it was the date in 1840 when the native people (the Maori) signed the Treaty of Waitangi with the British, giving permission for the British to start colonizing New Zealand. Which has got me curious about national day's of other countries, and why they celebrate it on that day.

When is the national day of your Country, and what is the reason for it being on the date it is?
