National Sovereignty Day

National Sovereignty Day is a commemoration of a nation's independence and self-rule, but its specific meaning depends on the country. For example, in Türkiye, April 23rd marks both the opening of the Grand National Assembly and a children's day, symbolizing national will and a commitment to the future generation. In Argentina, November 20th commemorates the Battle of Vuelta de Obligado, a symbolic victory for sovereignty despite a military defeat, and in the TRNC (Northern Cyprus), April 23rd also celebrates this with events and parades.
