What makes the Romania calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the Romania signature lives in the other dates: Sfântul Ion (Saint John the Baptist, 7. Januar), found in no other country in the dataset; Unirea Principatelor Române/Mica Unire (Union Day/Small Union, 24. Januar), found in no other country in the dataset; Adormirea Maicii Domnului/Sfânta Maria Mare (Dormition of the Theotokos, 15. August), found in no other country in the dataset. The longest dry spell of the year runs from Adormirea Maicii Domnului/Sfânta Maria Mare (15. August) to Sfântul Andrei (30. November): 107 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 17 nationwide holidays and Sfântul Ion will fall on a Donnerstag (7. Januar).
