Independence_day_fireworks

The United States celebrates its independence from Great Britain today, but many other countries have their own Independence Days.

America has the only Fourth of July celebration, but more than a dozen other countries mark their independence this month, including Canada (July 1), Belarus (July 3), Venezuela (July 5), Argentina (July 9), Slovakia (July 17), Belgium (July 21) and Peru (July 28).

Happy Independence Day!
