Unity Day Zimbabwe has been celebrated on December 22 every year since 1987. This day remembers the union of two political parties, ZANU and ZAPU, as ZANU-P.F. Both parties represented a dialect in the country, Ndebele & Shona. The merger finished a nationwide conflict between the two parties that had existed since 1963. This day also celebrates togetherness and calls to be united for the common causes of peace, development, and security.
