World Car Free Day (international holiday)
On September 22, every year in many countries of the world a holiday is celebrated - World Car Free Day. This holiday is held to promote the use of public transport, as well as walking and cycling. The motto of this Day is: "The city is a space for people to live."
A large number of cars in cities - it's been a long time global problem, for the sake of which, residents of big cities should abandon cars in favor of walking or cycling. Motor transport destroys not only the biosphere of the planet, but also the person himself. At the same time, the pace of car production continues to grow every day - the car has long been one of the most advertised products.
Day of Languages of Peoples (Kazakhstan)
On September 22, Kazakhstan celebrates a holiday - the Day of the Languages of the Peoples, which was established on January 20, 1998 by the Decree of the President of the Republic.

Ukraine annually celebrates on September 22 a holiday - the Day of Partisan Glory, which was established by the Decree of the President of Ukraine in 2001, in honor of the 60th anniversary (during the Great Patriotic War) of the beginning of the underground partisan movement in Ukraine.
This holiday is celebrated as a tribute of national respect to the fighters against fascism in a harsh wartime deep behind enemy lines. There were 6200 underground groups in Ukraine and partisan detachments, which in the occupied territory numbered more than a million people and inflicted significant losses on the Nazi troops.
Independence Day (Bulgaria)
On September 22, every year in Bulgaria, a national holiday is celebrated - Independence Day - the anniversary of the proclamation in 1908 of the sovereign Bulgarian kingdom. Until that time, the Bulgarian principality requested the approval of the Turkish Sultan in all its foreign policy acts, because it was a vassal Ottoman Empire. And in 1908, on September 22, in the city of Veliko Tarnovo, the Bulgarian prince Ferdinand read out his Manifesto on the Independence of Bulgaria. The country from that moment changed the form of the principality to the kingdom. The Kingdom of Bulgaria was officially recognized by Ottoman Türkiye and all the Great Powers of Europe.
After independence, a rapid rise began to be noted in Bulgaria, but it did not last long, because after 5 years the Balkan Wars began and the First World War that brought Bulgaria a national catastrophe.
Baltic Unity Day (Latvia)
Every year on September 22, a holiday is celebrated in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia - the Baltic Day of Unity - a date that reminds the peoples of these countries of their joint heroic past. In 1207, on this very day, the territories of the Livs were seized by the Order of the Swordsmen, and in 1214, the lands of the Latgalians in order to gain military and political control over the Baltics and convert the Baltic people to Christianity.
On September 22, 1236, the crusaders and monks of the Order made a robbery raid on Lithuania. And when they returned home with rich booty, in the Baltic city of Saule, all the people united and successfully repelled the attack of uninvited guests. On this day, the Order of the Sword was defeated.

Church holiday according to the folk calendar - Akim and Anna
On this day, Orthodox Christians know what church holiday is today. On this day, they honor the memory of the parents of the Mother of God - Saints Joachim and Anna.
According to popular tradition, the pious Joachim and Anna, who lived in Jerusalem, had no children for a long time. Joachim once came to the temple and wanted to make a sacrifice to God, but the high priest refused Joachim to perform this ceremony, because he had not yet given offspring to Israel.
Joachim retired to the wilderness in grief to pray for the birth of a child. An angel at that time appeared to him and his wife, announcing that all over the world they would talk about their descendants. Anna, nine months later, gave birth to a daughter, whom the couple named Mary and vowed to dedicate her to the service of God.
The holiday of Joachim (Akim) and Anna in Rus' was called the Day of Women in Birth, it is a celebration of the Nativity of the Virgin.
Saints Joachim and Anna among the Russian people are considered the patrons of childless women and women in childbirth. On this day, all relatives congratulate young mothers and honor midwives. They baked pies and cooked porridge. On this festive day, young parents or childless newlyweds gave gifts to loved ones in the form of round pies.
Women who could not have children on this day prayed to Akim and Anna for conception.
