Filipinos most important date in our Philippine history is what we called Independe Day because this is the day that Spanish rule our country on June 12, 1898 where Filipinos celebrate it every year.
Independence day is a National Holiday so government offices are closed, no classes in all schools due to some activities like government employees join parades and specially to give respect to our flag, Independence day is one of the highlights to all Filipinos because this is the day that Philippines claimed it's freedom by the colonist. The symbol of the flag has its own meaning the color blue means peace, truth and justice, red for Valoroso white means equality and three stars are the regions of our country:Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao, and the sun has eight rays which represent the provinces that started the revolt against Spain this are the following provinces:Manila, Cavite, Bulacan, Pampanga,Nueva Ecija,Laguna and Batangas.Filipinos had many sacrifices and hardships also many lives were taken but this was all successful or the lives was not wasted because Philippines claim the Freedom by the colonist. And another year has come celebrate the 121st Independence day.
