Worth noting while 40+ countries celebrate Mother’s Day — per country, the holiday’s actual date varies.

See the wiki page for more information: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother%27s_Day

Also worth noting that today is considered Mother’s Day in ~96 countries based on the entry, making this date the single largest alignment of Mother’s Day celebrations in the world.

The second place goes to March 8th (International Women’s Day) which has 20 countries.

For clarification, “the entry” appears to be the wiki page I linked to. The count of 96 countries appears to come from the list of countries per time of year.

My 40+ countries came from the same page, not sure why it says 40+.
