Sardinia's Day also known as Sardinian people's Day, is a holiday in Sardinia commemorating the Sardinian Vespers occurring in 1794–96. The intolerance towards the treatment reserved to the Sardinians by the Piedmontese who, by royal order, excluded locals from any participation in political life and administrative activities generated such discontent among the population to spread throughout the island revolutionary feelings.
Sa die de sa Sardigna is the day of Sardinian pride, of social redemption and of the expulsion of the Piedmontese: a day of awakening from the Savoy domination that still remains imprinted in the hearts and memories of all Sardinian people. The feast, established in 1993 with the Regional Law n. 44 of 14 September 1993, is also called “Day of the Sardinian people” or “Sa die de s’acciappa“.
