you've mentioned "1947 - The United Nations General Assembly voted to approve the Partition Plan for Palestine, a plan to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict in the British Mandate of Palestine" please note that there was no "Israel" at that time —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.35.78.106 (talk) 02:21, 24 November 2007 (UTC) Removed:
- All Saint's Day a Christian holiday. Observance is on November 1, the day after Halloween. In Sweden the All Saints official holiday takes place on the first Saturday of November.
- In Ireland November 1 is regarded as the first day of Winter.
- November 1 is called November Day(Lá Samhna) in Celtic tradition and is thus named in the Irish Calendar, where the month is called Mí na Samhna
- American Federal elections are held on the Tuesday after the first Monday of November in even-numbered years. They therefore fall between November 2 and November 8.
- The Americans celebrate Thanksgiving holiday on the fourth Thursday of November.
- In Britain and New Zealand Guy Fawkes night is celebrated on November 5, the anniversary of the failed Gunpowder Plot.
- Around November 17 the Leonids reach their peak.
None of these are multiday holidays or observances, but should be useful in future year's updates to this page. I've already moved these entries to their specific days. --mav 12:31, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Fictionous: 1307 - William Tell, a legendary marksman in Switzerland, is said to have successfully shot an apple on the head of his son with a single bolt from his crossbow.[edit]
This has not realy happened it is a story from schiller. So I think it does not count. It is about the same as if one would celebrate the day of the first contact in the fictionous star trek universe.
