  • Botswana Independence Day

    From Mike Dippel@954:895/1 to All on Wed Sep 30 09:31:58 2026
    September 30-October 1

    Botswana became independent from Great Britain on September 30, 1966.
    Since 1885, the region had been a British colony called the Bechuanaland Protectorate. The biggest Independence Day festivities are held in the
    capital city of Gaberones, and includes the singing of the national
    anthem, "Fatshe La Rona" (Blessed Country).
    President's Day is another national holiday, observed on two days in
    mid-July.
