What makes the Greece calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the Greece signature lives in the other dates: Καθαρά Δευτέρα (Clean Monday, 23 فبراير), found in no other country in the dataset; Ευαγγελισμός της Θεοτόκου (Annunciation, 25 مارس), found in no other country in the dataset; Το Όχι (Ochi Day, 28 أكتوبر), found in no other country in the dataset. The longest dry spell of the year runs from Δευτέρα Πεντηκοστής (1 يونيو) to Κοίμηση της Θεοτόκου (15 أغسطس): 75 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 15 nationwide holidays and Καθαρά Δευτέρα will fall on a الاثنين (15 مارس).
