A band of the Nepal Army pays tribute to the late Nepali King Prithivi Narayan Shah, the unifier of modern Nepal, on his birth anniversary in Kathmandu, Nepal, on January 11, 2026. The birth anniversary of nation-builder Prithivi Narayan Shah is celebrated as National Unification Day in the Himalayan Nation. Prithvi Narayan Shah, the then king of Gorkha, ascends the throne at the age of 20 and launches the unification campaign amid significant social, economic, and geographical challenges. He passes away in 1831 BS at the age of 52. Prithvi Jayanti commemorates Nepal's shared history, culture, and national pride, and serves as a reminder to strengthen unity amid diversity. The day highlights the importance of placing national interest above personal interests and carries special significance in instilling a sense of dedication, service, and responsibility toward the nation among the younger generation. Shah's unification campaign enables Nepal to remain one of the world's oldest independent nations by safeguarding national sovereignty and independence. His teachings, including the notion that both internal and external threats undermine the nation, remain relevant today, particularly in the fight against corruption and the promotion of good governance. His description of Nepal as a ''yam between two rocks'' continues to resonate in the country's geopolitical context.
