Seychelles Edition
World Freshly Swept Step Day leads today's complete edition for Seychelles.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for the visible care people give to entrances, porches, shopfronts, courtyards, sidewalks, and shared spaces.
Commemorates the establishment of the Seychelles as a republic in 1976 (within the Commonwealth) and again as a one-party state in 1979, and finally as a multi-party republic in 1993. The AHA! moment: the Seychelles has been independent, then a one-party state, then a multi-party democracy. The transition happened without bloodshed, which is unusual in African politics and is a source of quiet pride.
