Extraordinära händelser :

Katolska och protestantiska : The First Council of Nicaea (a gathering of bishops in the early days of Christianity) wanted to find a day to commemorate the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. This commemoration had to be linked to Jewish holiday traditions, since the last supper of Christ was believed to be a Jewish Passover meal. But the Jewish calendar is based on lunar and solar cycles, so the Easter celebration had to follow the same calendar.

Katolska och protestantiska : Paid holiday

Katolska och protestantiska : Datum för påsken fastställdes under året 325. Denna fest beräknas enligt månkalendern.

Sekulär semester : Chicago, Saturday May 1st, 1886: 350,000 workers go on strike to call for an 8-hour working day. Industries are paralyzed nationwide. On Monday, as demonstrations go on, the police open fire. On Tuesday, Chicago is again on strike. Following a bomb launched against them, the police shoot again. 12 dead, of which 7 policemen. 8 anarchists will be condemned and executed. In 1889, the Socialist International Movement met in Paris and declared this day international workers' day . The Soviets will follow suit, just as the Nazis. In France, under the Vichy regime (1940-1944), the celebration is renamed Labour Day .

Katolska och protestantiska : Dies sanctus ascensionis Domini, Helge torsdag, är inom kristendomen dagen då Jesus efter uppståndelsen enligt Nya Testamentet lämnade jorden, och fördes upp till himlen inför elva av apostlarna och har firats sedan 300-talet. Dagen infaller 39 dagar (den 40:e dagen) efter påskdagen. Liksom påsk och pingst bygger dessa båda helger på måncyklerna och infaller därför vid olika datum olika år. Någon egentlig årsdag av Kristi himmelsfärd, kan man alltså inte tala om. Den liturgiska färgen är vit på den här dagen. [Wikipedia]
