What makes the Peru calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the Peru signature lives in the other dates: Día de Santa Rosa de Lima (Santa Rosa de Lima, 30 agosto), found in no other country in the dataset; Combate de Angamos (Battle of Angamos, 8 ottobre), found in no other country in the dataset; Jueves Santo (Holy Thursday, 2 aprile), shared with a single other country. The longest dry spell of the year runs from Año Nuevo (1 gennaio) to Jueves Santo (2 aprile): 91 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 13 nationwide holidays and Día de Santa Rosa de Lima will fall on a lunedì (30 agosto).
