Jordan's National Day, also known as Independence Day, is celebrated annually on May 25th. This public holiday commemorates Jordan's declaration of independence from British rule on May 25, 1946. The event marked the end of the British Mandate for Transjordan and the establishment of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, led by King Abdullah I.
The British Mandate for Transjordan was established after World War I, following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. The mandate was meant to be a temporary arrangement, with the ultimate goal of preparing the territory for self-government. On March 22, 1946, the Treaty of London was signed, which officially recognized Jordan's independence, and on May 25, 1946, the British Mandate was terminated, and Jordan became a fully sovereign state.
Jordan's National Day is marked by various activities and events throughout the country. Celebrations include flag-raising ceremonies, parades, cultural performances, and speeches by political leaders. The day is an opportunity for Jordanians to express their national pride and unity while honoring the history and achievements of their country since gaining independence.
