- Abstract
Events, resulting from a victorious war, a successful revolution or formation of a state, striking amendments relating the constitutional system or international status, are able to constitute identity of the citizens of a state, they can constitute the self-image of a state, from which a sense of national community can grow out within all groups of a society supporting a state. In order to consolidate this collective emphasis, national holidays were found, which periodically have to impose the recall of events, forming identity of a state. In (german-)austrian republic such a state holiday was found by decision of the Constituent National Assembly in April 1919, serving for: “The everlasting memory of the declaration of the free state of German-Austria" on November 12th 1918.
