Every year on April 25 the countries of Australia and New Zealand observe Anzac Day.
Anzac stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and the annual event sees people in the antipodean countries of the Southern Hemisphere participate in a day not dissimilar from the UK’s Remembrance Sunday.
The day is one of reflection, and although is most dear to the people of these two countries, it is respected and observed around the world in honour of the sacrifices of the troops of Australia and New Zealand in the name of freedom for the entire world.
