One of the largest parties in the United States is celebrated on July 4, but many people do not know exactly why this date is so special in the US, nor why the skies are painted in colors by thousands of fireworks on this day.

On July 4, The Independence Day in USA, The 4th of July, etc., are some of the names that this celebration carries, whose birth is sent back a few centuries ago, when the United States was not a great united nation. Many years ago, specifically before July 4, 1776, the country was conformed by a series of colonies controlled by the British Empire, but it was on this date that its independence was declared.

WHAT IS CELEBRATED ON JULY 04?

Although it sounds simple, the declaration of independence of the United States is celebrated on July 4. This celebration is historic, since it was the beginning of what would be a world power, one of the most powerful countries in the whole Earth.

It is usually a date that comes with a long holiday in the United States. For example, if the date falls on a Saturday or a Friday, all companies agree to let their workers celebrate July 4 with their family, returning to their activities on July 5 or 6, depending on the calendar.
