Victory Day or 9 May marks the capitulation of Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union in the Second World War (also known as the Great Patriotic War in the Soviet Union). It was first inaugurated in the fifteen republics of the Soviet Union, following the signing of the surrender document late in the evening on 8 May 1945 (after midnight, thus on 9 May, by Moscow Time). The Soviet government announced the victory early on 9 May after the signing ceremony in Berlin.[1] Though the official inauguration happened in 1945 (which means it has been celebrated since 1946), the holiday became a non-labour day only in 1965 and only in some of the countries.

That seems like a quite interesting day to celebrate. But really "victory day"? lol. I'd personally name it "restoration of peace day". Nice information though user StirlizZ-Fapicon.

@user StirlizZ-Fapicon: Very true, so how do you celebrate it? with a happy feast or is it just a day of mourning the brave who died in the war? I assume that is up to each individual I guess. But any special activities going on in your area on this particular day? just want some information on that.
