25th April- National holiday in Portugal
Hi, from Portugal! Today is a national holiday in Portugal. Do you know why? Well, basically it is because Portugal lived for almost 50 years in a dictatorial regime. On 25th April 1974 there was a revolution called "Revolução dos cravos" and a group of militars took the command of Portugal. From then on, Portugal was able to have free elections... but many things have still to be achieved!! Have a nice weekend!
