Maldives Independence Day, celebrated on July 26, is a special day when the people of the Maldives remember becoming free from British rule in 1965. Before that, the British had control over the islands for many years. On this day, Maldivians celebrate their freedom with colorful parades, traditional music, and dance. People hang national flags and join festivities across the islands. It is a happy day for everyone to show love for their country and reflect on their history. Independence Day teaches us about the importance of freedom and being proud of where we come from.
