20.03.2024 00:16 Date: March 20, 2024 Put on your red and white! Today’s Doodle celebrates Tunisia’s National Day. On this day in 1956, Africa’s northernmost country officially gained its freedom, ending nearly a century of French colonial protectorate. The capital city of Tunis hosts parades to honor the historic day. Government officials and citizens also attend wreath-laying ceremonies to commemorate those who fought for their freedom. Throughout the country, Tunisians decorate homes and buildings with their national flag — just like the one in today’s Doodle. It features a crescent moon and star atop a white and red background. Families spend the festive day with loved ones and might prepare dishes like couscous. Often served with meat stew on top, the fluffy semolina granules are a favorite across Tunisia. At night, many people gather to watch fireworks light up the sky. The holiday serves as a reminder to Tunisians to continue the fight for freedom and democracy. Happy National Day, Tunisia!

15.03.2024 03:00 Date: March 15, 2024 Today’s Doodle celebrates Hungary's National Day, commonly called Revolution Day. On this day in 1848, poet Sándor Petőfi joined a group of patriots at the Hungarian National Museum and recited the 12 Points of the Pest Revolution, a list of democratic demands. This list remains one of Hungary’s most important texts, and it called for things like religious freedom, equal legal representation, the right to a free press, and equal taxation. The people’s passion for the ideals of the 12 Points led to the Hungarian Revolution for independence and the appointment of the nation’s first prime minister. This milestone revolution demonstrated the power of a united people, and Hungarians today remain inspired by these nationalists who fought for a brighter future. The Hungarian National Museum remains the place to be on National Day. People recite the Nemzeti dal , local officials give speeches, and wreaths are laid at memorials dedicated to revolutionaries. Many honor those who came before them by wearing a kokárda. Patriots have long worn these ribbons of red, white, and green — the colors on the flags that wave throughout the nation and in today's Doodle. Happy Revolution Day, Hungary! Location: Tags:
