Google Celebrates Lebananese Independance Day


Google Celebrates Lebananese Independance Day

Martyrs Square in BeirutIf you’re in Lebanon or have a tendency to use Google’s country page for Lebanon then you should have seen the new Google Doodle honoring the Lebanon’s independence back in 1943 from the French.

The doodle speaks for itself, where the team from Google Arabia have put together a doodle that almost identically mirrors the Lebanese flag with the cedar tree, red, white, and green.

Google’s letters are displayed in a delicious golden shade that probably represents the many ancient ruins the country bares to its visitors in a display of civilizations that goes back thousands of years.
