Suriname - Maroon Day
Maroon Day is one of the public holidays in Suriname. This holiday had been celebrated for decades, but it became a public holiday only in 2011, when the first official events were held.
Maroon Day celebrates the nation of African refugees who escaped from slavery and formed independent settlements. The term “maroon” itself derives from the Latin American Spanish “cimarrón”, meaning “fugitive, runaway, feral animal”. The former slaves spread and settled in North, South, Central and Latin Americas, Caribbean islands and even in South Asian countries

Taiwan - National Day
The Republic of China, that is commonly known as Taiwan, celebrates its National Day on October 10. This holiday is also called Double Ten Day or Double Tenth Day, referring to the tenth day of the tenth month in 1911, when the Wuchang Uprising began.
The uprising began in the city of Wuchang in 1911 and triggered the Xinhai Revolution leading to the end of the Qing Dynasty and two millennia of dynasty rule in China. On January 1, 1912 the Republic of China was established, but after the end of World War II the Communists took control over the mainland China and the Government of the ROC had to relocate to Taiwan.
