                          Bangladesh's calendar includes Language Movement Day (February 21) - recognized by UNESCO as International Mother Language Day worldwide - commemorating 1952 protests in defense of the Bengali language that are foundational to national identity. Independence Day (March 26) and Victory Day (December 16) mark the start and end of the 1971 Liberation War, while Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha are typically the longest closures of the year.
