Statehood Day Recently Celebrated in Slovenia



People all across SLOVENIA celebrated their country's Statehood Day on Thursday, June 25th. Slovenia achieved independence from Yugoslavia in 1991. Happy belated Statehood Day!

Slovenia also celebrates a related holiday in the last month of every year. Independence and Unity Day commemorates the election results of a December 23rd, 1990 plebiscite/referendum leading up to the Central European country's independence. The holiday occurs a few days later on December 26th — the day when the results of that referendum were publicly announced.
