How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
August 22nd through history
Bosworth, and a standard raised at Nottingham
On August 22nd 1485 Richard III was killed at Bosworth Field, the last king of England to die in battle. The Stanleys held their men back until the outcome was no longer in doubt and then joined the winning side, which was the sensible course and has been held against them for five centuries. Henry Tudor was crowned on the field, and 331 years of Plantagenet rule ended in a Leicestershire marsh.
In 2012 Richard’s remains were found beneath a council car park in Leicester, identified by DNA from living descendants, and reburied in the cathedral in 2015 with a good deal more ceremony than he received the first time.
On August 22nd 1642 Charles I raised his standard at Nottingham, the formal beginning of the Civil War. It was a foul evening, few had turned out, and the standard blew down in the night. Contemporaries who wrote it up afterwards considered this an omen, as contemporaries generally do.
Twelve states signed the first Geneva Convention on August 22nd 1864, on the treatment of the wounded in war. Britain acceded the following year.
Born on August 22nd: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Ray Bradbury and Honor Blackman — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Leo — a Fire sign ruled by the Sun, symbolised by the Lion. If you were born right on the cusp, sources vary by a day either way on exactly where one sign ends and the next begins.
Birthstone
traditionally Sardonyx, or Peridot or Spinel in the modern list for August.
Birth flower
Gladiolus (primary), also Poppy — most commonly cited sources agree on gladiolus as the main August flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.

A small, themed starting point rather than a shopping list — sardonyx for the stone, Leo for the sign, and the sky itself on the day.
