Global Estonian Cultural Days
Global Estonian Cultural Days (abbreviated ECD; Estonian: ülemaailmsed eesti kultuuripäevad, abbreviated ESTO) is Estonian culture-related events held, in general, in every four year.
First ECD were held in Toronto, Canada in 1972.[1] In this time Estonia was not an independent country but a part of Soviet Union (Estonian SSR).
Before Estonian Restoration of Independence in 1991, ECD were important events to keep Estonian culture alive.[2]

gollark: please stop, "Familial Mediterranean Fever#8480".
gollark: I mean, it also can lead to problematic arguments which spiral out of control.
gollark: It's weird how some of them said stuff like "it'll go away after the election" as if the entire world revolves around US politics or something.
gollark: > but its fascinating to see the stupidityI was looking at some reddit subreddit about allegedly "free-thinkers resisting the new normal" and *actually* seemingly about people complaining about masks, having to isolate after positive tests, talking about herd immunity, and saying "plandemic" a bit for similar reasons; morbid curiosity or something I guess.
