 Je viens d'un pays ex-communiste, et la on nous a enseigne que le premier Mai
est pour marquer le date d'un grand manif des ouvrier de Chicago dans les 
annees 1860. C'etait la premiere Internationale qui a decide que ce jour doit etre
le jour international des ouvriers.  

 I come from an ex-communist country, and there we were taught that the first
May commemorates the date of a big Chicago workers demonstration in the 1860-s.
The first Internationale decided to fix this day as the international workers day.
