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 maps, arrows, labels, warnings, directions, and the quiet civic kindness of making places easier to understand.
The anniversary of the 1986 capture of Kampala by the National Resistance Army (NRA), which brought Yoweri Museveni to power. The day is observed with a military parade, the president's address, and the flying of the Ugandan flag. AHA! moment: Museveni has been president since 1986 : over 39 years. When he took power, Uganda had had six presidents in 24 years. He promised "fundamental change, not mere change of guard." The irony? He became the longest-serving president in Ugandan history. The opposition calls Liberation Day "Dictator's Birthday."
