Anzac Day on April 25th is the most important day in Australia where they commemorate the many soldiers from Australia and New Zealand who died in World War 1. When World War 1 began in 1914, Australia was still a new nation and wanted to prove itself, so its soldiers formed part of the allied expedition in 1915. Every year on Anzac Day, Australians hold dawn services at 6am and a national ceremony to remember the soldiers and recite the Anzac Ode. Anzac Day is a public holiday in Australia that began as commemorations in 1923 and remains important as a day of remembrance.
