    (2) On this day in 1844, the Dominican Republic was announced as a sovereign state with the firing of a cannon heard throughout the nation. Each February, the country honors its independence by celebrating its dynamic cultural heritage all month long with Carnival. The annual festivities culminate at the end of the month on the country’s Independence Day, a national holiday honored in today’s Doodle.

    Independence Day is marked with what’s integral to the country’s core from listening to music by local artists to enjoying national dishes. Not quite a stew and not quite a sauce, a steaming plate of habichuelas guisadas (stewed and seasoned red beans) is one of the most common meals found on Dominican tables today. Although this savory dish is no stranger to meals at any time of the year, on Independence Day, it has special significance as a representative of Dominican culture and all the flavor that comes with it.

    Happy Independence Day, Dominican Republic!
