National Day
July 26, 2025-July 26, 2025 -
Liberia, Liberia
Liberia Independence Day is commemorated on July 26 every year by the African Republic of Liberia. Formerly a United States colony, the country was founded in 1822 as a haven to house and settle freed African-American slaves. Liberia became the first African republic to declare independence after adopting its constitution in 1847. Liberia has had a turbulent history since then, which has hampered its progress as a nation. Consistent growth in the country’s political and economic structures, on the other hand, has sparked hope for the future.
