Independence Day Estonia

On February 24, 1918, Estonia issued a declaration of independence. This was done by the new Soviet Russia, which was followed by a war with the Soviets to ensure Estonian liberty. After two years, on February 2, 1920, the war ended with the Tartu Peace Treaty. The treaty guaranteed Estonia’s independence for all time. However, the treaty would not be honored, and the Soviets went on to break this pact. This would lead to Estonia being under Soviet control for the next 50 years.

In August 1939, Germany and the Soviet Union signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. The pact’s protocol divided Eastern Europe into spheres of influence, and Estonia was handed over to the Soviet sphere. During this time, the Soviet’s ‘Russification’ policy meant the Estonian flag and other national symbols were forbidden. In fact, local languages were restricted and Russian was made the country’s official language.

In 1991, Estonia re-established its sovereignty after the peaceful Singing Revolution against Soviet rule. This was a unique revolution where music was used as a tool of resistance and a declaration of intent. Estonians start their Independence Day at sunrise with the traditional flag-hoisting on Toompea, a hill in the capital, Tallinn. This is followed by the military parade in Freedom Square, an open-air free concert in central Tallinn, and the President’s reception in the evening. Meanwhile, in other Estonian towns, the flag is hoisted at public and private spaces in the morning, which is followed by church services and attending local celebrations. The current flag of Estonia was adopted after independence from Russia in 1918.

Clean Your Floors Day

In the United States, Clean Your Floors Day is observed on August 3. This day serves as a reminder for everyone to clean their floors. Floor cleaning is a laborious but necessary task that keeps your home clean and keeps everyone who lives there safe and comfortable. Even though you should always clean your floors, it’s not always possible. The chance to deep clean and refinish your home’s floors on Clean Your Floors Day will make regular cleaning much easier.

Every year on August 3, Clean Your Floors Day is observed. The occasion serves as both a reminder and an opportunity for Americans to thoroughly clean their floors. Despite being a tedious task, floor cleaning is crucial. In order to keep the house safe and livable for the residents, floor cleaning is necessary for a number of reasons.

Because it removes any obstacles that could cause people to trip or slip while walking, floor cleaning is important. Lack of floor cleaning can result in numerous accidental injuries, some of which are fatal. Regular cleaning ensures that there are no objects on the floor that could damage it or scratch it, which increases its longevity and keeps your floors strong and beautiful for a long time. Wear and tear on your flooring also reduces the overall valuation of your home.

Maintaining clean floors is also crucial for minimising allergic reactions. If they aren’t regularly cleaned out, dust, pet fur and dander, pollen, and other allergens have a tendency to accumulate quickly on floors and can result in life-threatening allergic reactions. How simple it is to maintain floors is a deciding factor when selecting floor materials, especially in areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and hospitals where sanitization is crucial.
