ANZAC

ANZAC stands for the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, formed during World War I. The term commemorates the soldiers from Australia and New Zealand who landed at Gallipoli, Turkey, on April 25, 1915. This campaign, though ultimately unsuccessful, has significant cultural importance in both countries, symbolizing bravery, sacrifice, and mateship. ANZAC Day, observed annually on April 25, honors all Australian and New Zealand military personnel who served and died in wars, fostering a sense of national identity and remembrance. The legacy of ANZAC continues to influence both nations' values and traditions today.
