Dec
Republic Day on December 11 is a special holiday for people in Burkina Faso, a country in Africa. It marks the day in 1958 when Burkina Faso, then called Upper Volta, gained self-governing status from France. This was a big step towards becoming an independent country. On this day, people celebrate their nation's history, freedom, and achievements. There are usually parades, music, and dancing. It's a time for everyone, young and old, to show pride in their country and remember how people worked hard to get their freedom. It's like a big birthday party for the country!
