History behind the Friendship Day

Every year first Sunday of august is celebrated as FRIENDSHIP DAY among friends, boyfriends, girlfriends, besties, BFF or whatever  :p !  The tradition of Friendship Day started in 1935 by the US congress, they decided to dedicate one day in an honor of friends. At that Era devastating effect of the First world war created mistrust and hatred among the people so, the US congress declared this day to bring love and friendship back in the world.
This became so popular that all other countries also started celebrating this day with their friends and dear ones.
