Ceuta Day
-Saturday september 2, 2023
Secular holiday : In late August 1415, King John I of Portugal led an assault that would come to be known as the Conquest of Ceuta. The Portuguese caught the city with no sweat. Possibly this is the reason no one idea about what flag to use after the city was taken. Fortunately, somebody had packed the flag of Lisbon, which they all chose would be an incredible design for Ceuta. The coat of arms of Portugal was added to the center and that flag is as yet used for Ceuta today.
Over the next hundreds of years, Spain and Portugal Ceuta quarreled like Iberian brothers with Ceuta passing between them. The city was at long last surrendered to King Carlos II of Spain on January 1st, 1668 by the Treaty of Lisbon.
Even though Ceuta was vanquished by Portugal on August 22nd, 1415, it is praised on September 2nd as Spain and Portugal received the Gregorian calendar in 1582, pushing dates ahead by ten days.

-Wednesday november 1, 2023
Catholic : The day now honors all saints of the church, even those not known by name. The first All Saints' Day occurred on May 13, 609 (C.E.) when Pope Boniface IV accepted the Pantheon as a gift from the Emperor Phocas. Boniface dedicated it as the Church of Santa Maria Rotonda in honor of the Blessed Virgin and all martyrs. During Pope Gregory III's reign (731-741), the festival was expanded to include all saints and a chapel in St. Peter's church was dedicated accordingly. Pope Gregory IV officially designated the day in 837. (World Book Encyclopedia)

Christmas Day
-Monday december 25, 2023
Catholic or protestant : Since pre-historic times in Europe, festivities (bonfires, offrerings) were marking the beginning of longer hours of daylight with fires and ritual. The Roman festival of Saturnalia lasted several days in December (gambling and offerings). Germanic tribes also celebrated mid-winter (drinking and rituals). The Bulgarian (with Koleduvane) and the Polish (with Gwiazdka) perpetuate this tradition. Jesus of Nazareth was probably born in springtime (Reformists favour autumn). But in the 4th century, December 25th was chosen for the celebration of his birth by Pope Julius I (Bishop Liberus is also mentioned in 354 A.D.). Thus, a Christian element was introduced in the long-established mid-winter festivals. Before 1582, the Papal States and other Italian city states celebrated New Years Day on Christmas Day.
