Happy Independence Day, Lebanon! Today, Global Indiana joins the people of Lebanon in celebrating their Independence Day! On November 22, 1943, Lebanon achieved independence from French mandate, marking the birth of a proud, resilient nation with a rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted traditions. Lebanon’s Independence Day is honored with grand parades, traditional Lebanese music, and fireworks that light up the sky. Across the country, the red, white, and green flag, bearing the iconic cedar tree, waves as a powerful symbol of unity and strength.

To all our Lebanese friends and those connected to this vibrant nation, we wish you a joyful Independence Day filled with pride and celebration!

Morocco Independence Day, observed on November 18th each year, commemorates the recovery of independence and the end of the French and Spanish protectorates in Morocco on November 18, 1956. This historic event marked the culmination of years of struggle and resistance against colonial rule, leading to the restoration of Morocco’s sovereignty and self-governance.

On Morocco Independence Day, the nation celebrates its freedom and national identity with various ceremonies, parades, cultural events, and festivities held across the country. These may include flag-raising ceremonies, military processions, traditional music and dance performances, and public gatherings attended by government officials and citizens alike.

The national day of Poland is celebrated on 11 November to commemorate the anniversary of the restoration of Poland's sovereignty as the Second Polish Republic in 1918 from the German, Austro-Hungarian and Russian Empires. Following the partitions in the late 18th century, Poland ceased to exist for 123 years until the end of World War I, when the destruction of the neighboring powers allowed the country to reemerge. It is a non-working day and a flag flying day in Poland.
