Maldives
republic day has a lot of significance, as it is on this day that
Maldives became a republic, after so many years as a monarchy.
Initially, republic was formed in the year 1953, but it could not
last for a long time and the monarchy was restored in the same year.
Later, it was on the 11th of November in 1968, when Maldives finally
became a republic. In the present times, as a part of Republic Day
celebrations in Maldives, parades and other special events are held
on the streets.
