| has gloss | eng: Independence and Unity Day is a Slovenian national holiday that occurs on every 26 December to commemorate the referendum in 1990, in which 93.2% of voters favoured the establishment of independent and sovereign nation. Between 1991 and 2005, the holiday used to be known simply as Independence Day. The current name was adopted in 2005, following the proposal of the then-opposition Social Democrats, in order to emphasize than national consensus at the time of the 1990 referendum, which was supported by all political parties represented in the Slovenian Parliament at the time. |
