Vanatu, Vanuatu
Vanuatu Independence Day is celebrated on July 30 every year by the Republic of Vanuatu. This holiday commemorates Vanuatu’s independence from the joint rule of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and France, which occurred on July 30, 1980. Formerly called New Hebrides, Vanuatu had labored under the rule of both European powers for about 74 years, and began to advocate for independence during the 1970s. The November 1979 elections produced Prime Minister Walter Lini and independence was then scheduled for July 30, 1980, after which the Anglo-French troops finally withdrew from Vanuatu.
