Católica ou Protestante : The First Council of Nicaea (a gathering of bishops in the early days of Christianity) wanted to find a day to commemorate the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. This commemoration had to be linked to Jewish holiday traditions, since the last supper of Christ was believed to be a Jewish Passover meal. But the Jewish calendar is based on lunar and solar cycles, so the Easter celebration had to follow the same calendar.

Cartões/Flores : The month of Ramadan is that in which was revealed the Quran; a guidance for mankind, and clear proofs of the guidance, and the criterion (of right and wrong). And whosoever of you is present, let him fast the month, and whosoever of you is sick or on a journey, a number of other days. Allah desires for you ease; He desires not hardship for you; and that you should complete the period, and that you should magnify Allah for having guided you, and that perhaps you may be thankful [Wikipedia]

Feriado secular : A descoberta de ouro em 1867 despertou a cobiça dos Ingleses, que acabaram por ocupar o território, apesar das reivindicações de Portugal, a quem a Grã-Bretanha dirige um ultimato em 1890. A colónia ficou designada, em 1895, Rodésia em homenagem a Cecil Rhodes, que promoveu a sua constituição. A parte sul desenvolveu-se mais do que a norte. As duas Rodésias associaram-se, em 1953, com a Niassalândia para constituírem a Federação da África Central, na qual a Rodésia do Sul era a parte mais importante. Desfeita a Federação em 1963, a Niassalândia tornou-se independente com o nome de Malawi e a Rodésia do Norte com a designação de Zâmbia, mas o Reino Unido negou-se a conceder a autonomia à Rodésia do Sul por ser governada pela minoria branca: esta decretou unilateralmente a independência em 1965 e adoptou o regime republicano em 1980. O bloqueio económico decretado pela ONU e a guerrilha, que ganhou extraordinário impulso após a independência de Moçambique em 1975, fizeram com que o país ascendesse à independência em 1980, tomando então o nome de Zimbabwe. Em 1980, Robert Mugabe, o líder nacionalista negro, é eleito, submetendo o país a um regime socialista. Em 1987 é estabelecido um regime presidencial, sendo Mugabe eleito chefe de Estado. Em 1990 são retiradas progressivamente as tropas instaladas em Moçambique. [Wikipedia]

Cartões/Flores : Mother’s day has evolved in many countries in different ways. This is because mother’s day has different origins in different countries and therefore occurs on different days in the year. One school of thought claims that this day emerged from the custom of mother worship in ancient Greece. Mother worship which kept a festival to Cybele, a great mother of gods, and Rhea, the wife of Cronus, was held on March 15 to March 18 around Asia Minor. They insist that this custom spread around the world. Mothering Sunday is the celebration of motherhood in the United Kingdom. It is also known as Mid-lent Sunday, Rose Sunday and Laetare Sunday. It originally comes from the Victorian practice of allowing servants to return home to visit their mothers on this day. In the United States, Julia Ward Howe (May 27, 1819 - October 17, 1910) was a prominent American abolitionist, social activist, and poet. Howe’s Battle Hymn of the Republic was first published in the Atlantic Monthly in 1862 and quickly became one of the most popular songs for the Union during the American Civil War. After the war she focused her activities on the causes of Pacifism and women’s suffrage. In 1870 she was the first to proclaim Mother’s Day, with her Mother’s Day Proclamation. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson approved Mother’s Day in 1914

Feriado secular : From 2009 When the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) was created in May of 1963, the founding delegates proclaimed May 25, 1963 African Liberation Day (ALD), as the successor commemoration day of Africa Freedom Day.
