✍️ Italy's far-right government has revived a national holiday in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi, a 13th-century Italian mystic and poet, to celebrate the country's identity.
👉 Millions of Italian workers will get a day off on October 4th 👉 The holiday is a tribute to Saint Francis's dedication to peace, brotherhood, environmental protection, and solidarity 👉 The move is seen as a nod to Italy's identity and a way to restore a pillar of the country's collective memory 👉 Saint Francis of Assisi was an Italian mystic and poet who founded the Franciscan religious order
