Some Russians believe that November 4 is the Day of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. In fact, November 4 will be National Unity Day. It is about him that will be discussed in our article.

The history of the holiday on November 4

This holiday is closely connected with not the brightest period in the history of Russia called "Time of Troubles". At the turn of the century, the Poles decided to take advantage of Russia's internal political turmoil in order to realize their interests in relation to our territories. They sought to return Smolensk, Chernigov and Novogorod-Seversky lands, lost in the middle of the 16th century. Moreover, the Poles hoped to gain control over the internal and external affairs of Russia. For this it was necessary to gain a foothold in the capital. So in 1605. False Dmitry I entered Moscow, a foreigner who claimed to be Tsarevich Dmitry, the hereditary monarch of Russia. He did not have to rule for long, the Moscow boyars quickly prepared an uprising against the impostor.

The next impostor appeared in 1607, he gathered an army and in 1608. began a campaign against Moscow. This time it was not possible to take the capital and False Dmitry II was forced to settle in Tushino, where he established his new government from the boyars, nobles and clergy.

To expel the impostor Vasily Shuisky had to take desperate measures, conclude a military alliance with Sweden, this provoked the Russian-Polish war of 1609-1618.

Vasily Ivanovich Shuisky- Russian Tsar from 1606 to 1610. Representative of the princely Shuisky family. After the deposition, he lived as a prisoner of the Poles. The last representative of the Rurik dynasty on the Russian throne.

At the initial stage, Russian troops suffered crushing defeats, so in 1610. Moscow boyars decided to change sides and plotted against Vasily Shuisky, handing him over to the Poles. The son of the Polish king Vladislav became the new ruler of Russia, but he remained in Poland to live.

Fortunately, there were patriots in the country who could not tolerate foreign domination over their country. In 1612 Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky led the militia. They managed to recapture Kitay-Gorod, after which the Polish-Lithuanian troops, who occupied the Kremlin, surrendered without a fight.

Who are Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky

It is known that Minin was a representative of the commercial and industrial nobility and lived in Nizhny Novgorod. In 1611 he became a zemstvo headman, therefore he had great influence on the council, assembled by decree of Patriarch Hermogenes. Minin made a speech, the purpose of which was to inspire the Russian people to fight against the interventionists and convince them of the need to expel them. They supported the headman, entrusting him with property matters and developing a plan of resistance. Minin also advised to elect Dmitry Pozharsky as commander of the militia.

Dmitry Pozharsky was a representative of a princely family and lived in Moscow. He took an active part in the struggle against False Dmitry II and in 1609. became governor in Zaraysk, Ryazan district, he refused to recognize the power of Vladislav in the county. In 1611 he participates in the Moscow uprising against the Poles and is seriously injured. Pozharsky went to be treated and in 1612. already leading the militia and seeking victory.

Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky became the real personification of this holiday; in 1818, a monument was erected to them in Red Square in tribute to their feat.

Why National Unity Day is November 4 and is important for Russia

AT modern form The holiday was established in 2005. at the initiative of the Interreligious Council, expressed in 2004. The holiday has not only social, but also religious significance, because Pozharsky entered Kitai-Gorod with the icon of the Kazan Mother of God. On November 3-4, Moscow was liberated, and on November 4 every year they celebrate the holiday of national unity. This is an important holiday, because it emphasizes that our people can unite for good purposes, despite the difference in nationality and religion.

Symbols of National Unity Day

The main symbol of the day of national unity is the icon of the Kazan Mother of God, which is considered religious. The fact is that the dates of the state and church holidays always coincide, so we decided to choose a symbol that marked the heroic liberation of the Russian capital.

The bell was also chosen as a symbol, it is difficult to explain the historical motive for this decision.

How do we rest on November 4th? Will it be a weekend or work day?

Since the holiday of November 4 has importance for our country, the government always arranges a day off where friends and relatives can gather, and believers should visit church on such an important Orthodox holiday.
