Foundation Day is a designated date in which celebrations mark the foundation of a nation, state or the creation of a military unit. This day is for the countries that came into existence without the need to gain independence. The older countries that use some other event of special importance as their national day. This marks the use of a "class" of National Days, which are equally important in the founding of the nation, and a "class" of less important official holidays. This feast may be symbolised by the date of becoming a republic or a significant date for a patron saint or ruler (birthday, accession, removal, etc.) as the starting point of the nation's history. Often the day is not called "Foundation Day", but it serves and can be considered as one.
