{{for|the novel|Liberation Day (novel)}}
'''Liberation Day''' is a [[day]], often a [[public holiday]], that marks the liberation of a place, similar to an [[independence day]]. Liberation marks the date of either a [[revolution]], as in [[Cuba]], the end of an oppressive regime, as in [[Portugal]], or the end of an [[Military occupation|occupation]] by another state, as in the [[Netherlands]], thereby differing from independence in the meaning of [[secession]] from another country.
