November 4, national unity Day - a little-known holiday with a long history. But we will try to understand it based on historical facts and reason.

Russia has always loved to relax and something to celebrate. Most note the date you wander from year to year, gradually losing the original meaning, acquiring legends, losing its true face. Just people used to rest at this time, and the government doesn't want to go against the masses. That left us on the New year, having survived even Stalin with his "antiperovskite reforms". 8 March, we congratulate all ladies, and already almost no one remembers about the "solidarity of women" and "March of empty pots" - as happened with most of our holidays. The history of national unity Day was no exception, but it is interesting for its intriguing storyline and ambiguous positions. If the rest of the holidays somehow has retained its original appearance, we are discussing the day sometimes even departed from its roots. But about all under the order.

The Beginning

the day of national unity the history of the holiday

So the Day of national unity. The history of the holiday dates back to 1612, when Kuzma Minin and Pozharsky was able to unite the people and army to free Moscow from the invaders of Poland. It happened 22.10 old style (04.11 new). Later Tsar Alexei Romanov established the right date to celebrate every year. And we are delighted! So it all started. Three centuries the people of Russia celebrated this day with festivities and amusements, proud of the strength, power and independence of his, which was awakened in him, without orders and exhortations.

The Continuing story

November 4 national unity day

What happened next? When the Bolsheviks came, it turned out that this celebration objectionable. But the people of a few centuries celebrated it in November! After all the wars, hardships, deprivation to pick up at the exhausted people holiday - it was unacceptable. But leave the celebration of the events of tsarist Russia, too, is impossible. How to be? Date slightly changed, and already on 7 November began to celebrate the anniversary of the great October socialist revolution. Gone are the Day of national unity, the history of the holiday is over? No!

In 1996, we officially forget about the revolution, and the date November 7 was the Day of accord and reconciliation. This formulation generally it is dark. In a presidential decree (December 2004) States about the need to unite, to rally social strata of the Russian population. 

Interchange

the story of the day of national unity

In 2004 the Interreligious Council of Russia put forward the idea of returning not only the date but also the wording. Next year, the government signed the order is returned to us the Day of national unity, the history of the holiday continues...

What is the relation of the modern generation to this day? Ambiguous. The history knows few people, unfortunately. But young people like to be "United and invincible." The government tries a lot to ensure that this holiday has acquired its own traditions and ardent admirers, particularly among young people. Concerts, corporate events, sporting events - the city across the country are actively trying to fill this output mass entertainment, festivals. It is certainly good, because this way is campaigning for an active and healthy life, promotes national pride, patriotism, friendship and trust.

However, many older people think this holiday is pointless. For the people, he went into the past, into history. And we even have a day when they were lifting the siege of Leningrad, is not a holiday, to say nothing of Minin and Pozharsky. People do not understand who and what to congratulate, and the government enjoys "the November habit". It's a tradition - one day, but in November people need to relax. Although in essence it's just another date (of course, meaningful) military battle. In this sense, the October revolution has even more rights to "red letter day" – after all, a change in social poles, the overthrow of the autocracy.

As the Day of national unity? The history of the holiday is discussed. Some say that the monument in red square is sufficient to remember about national feat. Others were calling for the revival and preservation of traditions, sincerely believing that Rossi needs more national and official occasions. And the third main output, let there be at least the day of the flood. What is most typical for Russia - the third most! Perhaps that is why the largest percentage of people surveyed, gives the correct formulation of the holiday since 2007 - 23. Only good news is that it grows, at the beginning of the survey, its value was only 8%.
