Origin of National Day

National Day is a legal holiday set by a country to honor the country itself; China's National Day is set on October 1, which is the day of the founding of the new China.

They are usually the anniversaries of this country's independence, the signing of the constitution, the birth of the head of state, or other anniversaries of great commemorative significance; and in some cases, the saints' days of this country's patron saint.

While the vast majority of countries have similar anniversaries, some of them cannot be called national days due to complicated political relations, for example, the United States has only Independence Day, not a national day, but both have the same significance.

In ancient China, the emperor's accession to the throne, the birth of the emperor called "National Day". Countries around the world to determine the basis of the National Day is very strange. According to statistics, there are 35 countries in the world that take the time of the establishment of the country as the National Day.
