Introduction :
Every year we celebrate National Foundation Day on 11th February, this day marks a significant day for Japanese Americans, as they honor "National Foundation Day." Since 1966, the holiday has marked the origins of Japan's royally square and reminds residents of the nation's founding. The first Japanese emperor was made a national holiday and named " Kigen-setsu". 11th February was determined as the day of enthronement by calculating the date in the solar calendar corresponding to the date recorded in the " Nihon Shoki" the chronicles of Japan, Japan's first history compiled on imperial orders. Before World War 2 government offices and schools throughout Japan held all sorts of celebrations on " Kigen-setsu", but after the war, the holiday was abolished for various reasons. Still, many voices lamented its passing, so that in 1966 the day was again made a national holiday as National Foundation Day, it's a national holiday, an occasion for the people to foster their love for their country. So celebrate this day with your family, friends, and dear ones and make this day special with your favorite site rumela.
