Britain does not currently have an official national day. While most countries commemorate independence or unification, Britain developed gradually without a single defining event. The document suggests that December 7th could serve as Britain's national day since it marks an important historical milestone - the establishment of the Irish Free State and adoption of the current name for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in 1922. Some proposed celebrations could include fireworks displays, flag face painting, costumed street festivals, and cultural performances from across the UK nations.

- National day is usually a day that commemorates an important event in a country’s history. - In many countries which used to be colonies, the national day is known as Independence Day because it remembers the day they became free of their old empire. - However, there are exactly two countries in the world that have no offical national day: Denmark and Britain. 2. Why Britain doesn’t have a national day? - Britain is very unusual in that it is a multi-national state made up of four non-sovereign countries: England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. The whole country can't celebrate England Day or Scotland Day. Maybe an even bigger reason is that Britain developed its present-day political state very gradually, over many centuries, rather than in the flash of a revolution or unification or independence, as happened in most other countries. - Moreover, virtually no other country on earth has been so undisturbed by revolution or outside invasion as Britain, which is a big part of why they are almost alone in lacking a national day. 3.

Why is it worth being commemorated more than other events? - Although the UK doesn't have a national day, there are a number of days of celebration which are associated with celebrating the constituent countries of Britain and their traditions. - To distinguish various special days like these events, 07/12 is an appropriate day for national day as this time marks an important historical milestone of the United Kingdom which has united England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland until now. 5.
