One example of statutory law not yet reflected on the Feschtas Naziunais is listed below, and perhaps there should be an additional list of minor holidays which could also add those of the type "Talk Like A Pirate Day" etc.
There may be others of this type, so perhaps the memories or the searches of others can be added.38RZ13 resolved that the
11th Day of September be commemorated as International Memorial Day and shall be a day of reflection for all Talossans to honor the memory of all tragedies and celebrate all joys of the past.
(note that 38RZ14 a proposed National Flag Day was not adopted due to the existence of the Holiday of Hatred)
