Google Doodle Today: Brazil National Day 2016

Independence can mean many things, including liberty, strength, and peace. It can be a personal feeling of freedom or a public expression of pride. Today we celebrate two shining examples of independence: Brazil National Day and the start of the 2016 Paralympic Games. In September of 1822 on the banks of the Ipiranga Brook, Dom Pedro declared Brazil's autonomy. And in present-day Rio, the athletes of the Paralympic Games pursue their passions in more than 20 sports, including canoe and triathlon for the first time. These occasions are centuries apart, but they share a soaring sense of independence that's worth celebrating every day. *** Name of doodle: Brazil National Day 2016 This doodle was shown: 07.09.2016 Countries, in which doodle was shown: Brazil Link to doodle image: http://ift.tt/2bWNQoQ
