President's day (Honorverse)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
President's Day was a national holiday in the People's Republic of Haven in the Honorverse.
President's Day celebrated the date of the reigning hereditary president's of the People's Republic of Haven's birth. On this day the government all but shut down, so that its members of and their families could attend the party given in the president's honor. On that day, in 1905 P.D. a group of naval shuttles dropped four, five-thousand-kilo, precision guided warheads on the Presidential Palace where that year's celebration was being held--effectively decapitating the government.
