On April 25 every year Australians (and New Zealanders) commemorate ANZAC Day (e.g. the landing on the Gallipoli Peninsula of Turkey during WWI - when Australia went into battle for the first time as an independent nation -, now in its 90th anniversary), and Italians celebrate the Liberazione , the liberation from Nazi-Fascism (now in its 60th anniversary).
