25 August - Uruguay Independence Day

 

Uruguay Independence Day is celebrated on August 25th each year. It commemorates the day in 1825 when Uruguay declared its independence from Brazil, which was then part of the larger United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil, and the Algarves.

Uruguay's path to independence was a complex one, involving various struggles and conflicts. The declaration of independence marked the beginning of a process that eventually led to the establishment of Uruguay as a sovereign nation. The country went on to adopt its first constitution in 1830.

Today, Uruguay Independence Day is a national holiday in Uruguay and is celebrated with various events, ceremonies, parades, and cultural activities to honor the country's history and its journey towards autonomy.
