In 1523, Gustav Vasa was elected king of a free Sweden, and on the same date in 1809, the country adopted a new constitution.

National Day of Sweden ("Sveriges nationaldag") is a national holiday observed in Sweden on 6 June. Prior to 1983, the day was celebrated as the Swedish Flag Day ("Svenska flaggans dag").



In 2004, the Swedish parliament voted to make it a public holiday, which may cause people to become more interested in celebrating it.



Tillykke med dagen, Sverige! :cheers:

So now everybody on GH knows all the necessary facts about my country!!!

But haiducii, what I don't get is why you end your post with a phrase in - Norwegian!?!? :rofl::rofl::rofl:

"Tillykke med dagen" is a very common phrase in Norwegian, saying "Happy Birthday" or in Swedish "Grattis på födelsedagen"!

Not that it really matters :):):) I get your meaning!

Thank you Golfdelta for this rich pictured report of D-Day - very, very interesting.
And may I make to mention of that my Grand-Dad has been on this day as a soldier (from the now wrong side!) on the so called Omaha Beach. He survived and he told us children many stories from this memorable day and the days after. Mostly because he was to be awed by the giant armada of ships he could see in the morning fog.

On this day: 26th June

Slovenia marks Statehood Day. Its own state, especially for a nation as small as Slovenia's, is an asset in its own right, President Borut Pahor said as he addressed the national ceremony in Ljubljana's Congress Square on Monday, the eve of Statehood Day, which marks the day in 1991 when parliament passed the needed documents to declare independence.



"The establishment of an independent state 28 years ago is the most glorious milestone of our national history", and it "makes us an equal part of the global architecture", said Pahor. "I don't think there is a national political manifesto more clear, more inspiring, more visionary and more brief than this one," he stressed.

"We must never forget that Slovenia was attacked after it declared independence, but successfully countered the attack in a war," Pahor said at the reception at the Presidential Palace.

Official statistics show that the ten-day independence war claimed the lives of 19 Slovenian soldiers and police officers, with another 182 Slovenians wounded.
