Puerto Rico Commonwealth Day
July 25 is Commonwealth Day in the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico. This holiday marks the anniversary of the day the Puerto Rico constitution became effective in 1952. Although the United States acquired the island nation after the Spanish-American War, they did not permit self-rule until the 1950s.
