Like the other Baltic nations, the country would remain independent until the World War II. Republic Day in Latvia is celebrated annually on 18 November. In 1940, when the Soviet Union occupied Latvia, the holiday was suspended. It was reinstated when the nation regained its independence in 1990. Proclamation of the Republic of Latvia Facts & Quotes
