the national day is a designated date on which celebrations mark the nationhood of a country. often the national day will be a national holiday.
the national day is often taken as the date on which a state or territory achieved independence. other dates such as the countrys patron saint day, or a significant historic date are sometimes used. most countries have a single national day per year, though a few, for example, india and pakistan, have more than one. besides that, each of the two special administrative regions of the peoples republic of china,
namely hong kong and macao, celebrate the day of the establishment of the special
national day and a public holiday for many years, and in recent years it has been
observed as a full public holiday in northern ireland too. however, in the rest of the united kingdom the constituent countries patron saints days are low-key affairs.
