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.
March 18th through history
Six Dorset labourers sentenced to transportation
At the Dorchester assizes in March 1834 six agricultural labourers from Tolpuddle were sentenced to seven years’ transportation for swearing a secret oath, an offence under an Act of 1797 aimed at naval mutineers. The trial closed on March 18th, though whether sentence came that day or the next is disputed. Their real offence was forming a society to resist repeated cuts in their wages. A petition of some 800,000 names brought them home, and the Tolpuddle Martyrs became the founding story of British trade unionism.
Alexei Leonov left his spacecraft on March 18th 1965 and floated at the end of a tether for about twelve minutes, the first person to walk in space. His suit stiffened and ballooned in vacuum and he had to bleed air out of it to fit back through the hatch, a detail the Soviet authorities did not mention for many years.
On March 18th 2003 the Commons voted by 412 to 149 to send British forces to Iraq. One hundred and thirty-nine Labour members voted against their own government, the largest such rebellion in modern parliamentary history.
Six years spent failing to grow sisal on a Bahamian island for his father, then a first seat in Parliament at forty-nine: Neville Chamberlain, the future prime minister remembered chiefly for the policy of appeasement, born in Birmingham on March 18th 1869, came late to nearly everything. Rudolf Diesel, the engineer who invented the engine bearing his name, keeps the day too, born in 1858, and the novelist John Updike, known for his Rabbit novels, in 1932.
Born on March 18th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Neville Chamberlain and Queen Latifah — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Pisces — a Water sign ruled by Jupiter (traditional) / Neptune (modern), symbolised by Two Fish.
Birthstone
traditionally Bloodstone, or Aquamarine in the modern list for March.
Birth flower
Daffodil (primary), also Jonquil — most commonly cited sources agree on daffodil as the main March 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.
