Today, November 22, 2017, marks Lebanon's 74th Independence Day, and people across the country are celebrating.
Though the country's gone through a bit of a shake-up over the past few weeks, with Prime Minister Saad Hariri's resignation via video from Saudi Arabia, and the subsequent suspension of that resignation, the mood in Lebanon hasn't been all-positive.
But political drama aside, people on every end of Lebanon came out today to celebrate the holiday, and the beauty of their country.
