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?
july 4th in the u.s., not the actual independence day, but that's wut it's called and that's the day it's celebrated. no school, most work places closed, and lots and lots of fireworks!=)
France - 14th July (Beginning of the Revolution, 1789)) England - 23rd April, St George's Day - not a big event unless you're a Scout or Guide, in my experience.
