What is Anzac Day?

Every year on April 25, ANZAC Day is held to remember the soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who fought and died in World War I, especially during the Gallipoli Campaign of 1915. 

On April 25, 1915, ANZAC troops arrived on the Gallipoli Peninsula, which is now Turkey. This is where ANZAC Day got its start. The goal of the Allied forces, which included soldiers from Australia, New Zealand, Britain, and other countries, was to take over the important Dardanelles Strait and make it possible for ships to reach Russia. But the operation quickly turned into a long, bloody stalemate marked by fortified fighting, rough terrain, and a lot of deaths. 

During the Gallipoli Campaign, the ANZAC troops showed amazing bravery, strength, and friendship, even though things were hard. The spirit of ANZAC, which included traits like loyalty, toughness, and selflessness, became linked to the national identities of both Australia and New Zealand. 

Australia and New Zealand will always remember the Gallipoli Campaign, even though it ended with the Allies pulling out and a failure in terms of strategy. The ANZAC troops made sacrifices, and their bravery and unity live on through their stories. This is why ANZAC Day was created as a time to remember and think. 

On April 25, 1916, ANZAC Day was first marked. In Australia, New Zealand, and other places where ANZACs fought, solemn ceremonies and other events were held to remember them. ANZAC Day has grown over the years into a national day of remembrance that honors all Australian and New Zealand soldiers and women who have served in wars, conflicts, and security missions, not just those who fought in Gallipoli. 

ANZAC Day events today usually include morning services, marches, wreath-laying ceremonies, and moments of silence to remember the dead and thank them for their service and sacrifice. People in communities get together to remember the past and promise to work for peace, freedom, and the health and happiness of future generations. ANZAC Day is very important to people in Australia and New Zealand because it reminds them of the ideals of bravery, strength, and friendship that were formed during the war.

What is ANZAC biscuits?

A popular Australian treat with a long past is the ANZAC biscuit. They are linked to ANZAC Day and are considered a sign of honor and loyalty to our country. ANZAC biscuits are made from a combination of sugar, butter, rolled oats, flour, and coconut. The elements are mixed together to make a dough. The dough is then formed into balls and squished down before it is baked. 

Many people say that ANZAC cookies were first made by women at home during World War I and then sent to soldiers fighting abroad. People liked the cakes because they could be kept for a long time. This made them perfect for sending to soldiers in faraway places as a gift. They were often part of the troops' meals and gave them a taste of home. Even though no one is sure where ANZAC biscuits came from, they are a big part of Australian food culture and are enjoyed all year, but they have a special meaning on ANZAC Day. 

10 Facts about Anzac Day and Gallipoli Campaign

1. Where ANZAC came from: “ANZAC” stands for the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, which was created during the First World War. ANZAC troops served together in an order in many battles, but the Gallipoli Campaign stands out as one of the most important. 

2. The Gallipoli Campaign: The Gallipoli Campaign, sometimes called the Dardanelles Campaign, was an invasion that began in 1915 in the Gallipoli Peninsula in present-day Turkey. It was fought by the Allies against the Ottoman Empire. 

3. The first goals: The main goal of the Gallipoli Campaign was to protect the maritime route to Russia and get the Ottoman Empire out of the war in the end. The campaign, on the other hand, quickly turned into an expensive and long-lasting standoff. 

4. The arrival at Anzac: ANZAC troops arrived at what is now called ANZAC Cove on April 25, 1915. The landing was the start of the Gallipoli Campaign, and every year on April 25, we remember them. 

5. Ground and Conditions: The difficult landscape and cold temperatures on the Gallipoli Peninsula made things very hard for troops on both sides of the conflict. It was hard to move because of the steep rocks, narrow ravines, and rough slopes. In the summer and winter, it was also very hot and very cold. 

6. Casualties: A lot of people died on both sides in the Gallipoli Campaign. Over the course of the eight-month war, about 130,000 Allied troops and 250,000 Ottoman soldiers died. 

7. Getting out of there: The Allies were brave and determined, but they were not able to reach their goals at Gallipoli. In December 1915 and January 1916, the Allied troops withdrew from the peninsula, ending the war at night. 

8. The Gallipoli Campaign deeply changed the “Legacy of Sacrifice.”. The losses made by ANZAC troops and the strong bonds of friendship that were formed in the harsh conditions of Gallipoli became important parts of both countries’ identities. 

9. Commemoration: Every year on April 25, people in Australia, New Zealand, and other places hold Anzac Day to honor the service and loss of ANZAC troops, especially those who died at Gallipoli. People in Australia, New Zealand, and other places around the world hold walks, celebrations, and services to honor the day. 

10. International Significance: The Gallipoli Campaign and ANZAC Day are important to people all over the world, not just in Australia and New Zealand. People remember them as symbols of bravery, suffering, and national pride. They also serve as a warning of how terrible war is and how important it is to commemorate it and make peace.
