What makes the China calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the China signature lives in the other dates: 春节 (Chinese New Year (Spring Festival), 17 febbraio), found in no other country in the dataset; 中秋节 (Mid-Autumn Festival, 25 settembre), found in no other country in the dataset; 端午节 (Dragon Boat Festival, 19 giugno), shared with a single other country. The longest dry spell of the year runs from 端午节 (19 giugno) to 中秋节 (25 settembre): 98 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 6 nationwide holidays and 春节 will fall on a sabato (6 febbraio).
