[box][center][font=new times roman][anchor=Anchor1][size=150]What is Union Day?[/size][/anchor][/font][/center][hr]
[font=new times roman][region]The Union of Democratic States[/region] was founded on the 18th of December in 2015 by [nation]The Noble Thatcherites[/nation] and, in the years since, has grown to the region we know and love today. Subsequently, each year the Union has celebrated and commemorated in different ways the founding and success of the region on this day. Section 4 Clause 1 Sub-Clause A of the [url=https://forum.theuds.org/index.php?threads/ul-012-regional-symbols-act-2020.27/]Regional Symbols Act[/url] codified Union Day as a holiday “to be celebrated on the 18th of December each year, in commemoration of the founding of the region.” The Union Day of 2020 marks five years since the founding of the region, a momentous occasion that is the culmination of hundreds of hours of selfless sacrifice by countless players. On November 21st, President [nation]Druing[/nation] [url=https://forum.theuds.org/index.php?threads/presentation-of-union-day-committee-bill-to-the-president.255/]signed the Union Day Committee Act[/url], setting in motion preparations to sufficiently commemorate and celebrate this significant occasion.[/font][/box]
