Independence Day in Tunisia

The word Tunisia is derived from Tunis; a city and capital of modern-day Tunisia.

The present form of the name, with its Latinate suffix -ia, evolved from French Tunisie.

The French derivative Tunisie was adopted in some European languages with slight modifications, introducing a distinctive name to designate the country.

 The name Tunis can be attributed to different origins. It can be associated with the Phoenician goddess Tanith (aka Tunit), ancient city of Tynes or to the Berber root ens which means "to lie down".

The National Day of Ghana

 

The word Ghana means Warrior King and was the title accorded to the kings of the medieval West African Ghana Empire,

Geographically, the Ghana Empire was approximately 500 miles (800 km) north and west of modern Ghana, and it ruled territories in the area of the Sénégal River and east towards the Niger River, in modern Senegal, Mauritania and Mali.

Ghana was adopted as the legal name for the Gold Coast combined with British Togoland upon gaining autonomy on 6 March 1957.
