Centenary of ANZAC

The Centenary of ANZAC marks 100 years since the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landed at Gallipoli during World War I on April 25, 1915. This event is significant in shaping national identities in both countries, commemorating the sacrifices made by soldiers and the impact of the war. ANZAC Day, observed annually on April 25, honors their memory with ceremonies, parades, and reflections on service, courage, and loss. The centenary was particularly poignant, serving as a reminder of the enduring legacy of those who served and the importance of remembrance in the nations' histories.
