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 janvier), found in no other country in the dataset; Unirea Principatelor Române/Mica Unire (Union Day/Small Union, 24 janvier), found in no other country in the dataset; Adormirea Maicii Domnului/Sfânta Maria Mare (Dormition of the Theotokos, 15 août), found in no other country in the dataset. The longest dry spell of the year runs from Adormirea Maicii Domnului/Sfânta Maria Mare (15 août) to Sfântul Andrei (30 novembre): 107 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 17 nationwide holidays and Sfântul Ion will fall on a jeudi (7 janvier).
