So if you just head to google.com, the first thing you'd realize is a doodle of a waving Nigerian flag. That's right.

But it's a custom, everyday, Google celebrates something unique on their homepage doodle and of course today, it has to be about us.

It is worth noting that celebrating Nigeria's independence, or any other country didn't start today and has been a recurring thing.
They have also celebrated Jollof Rice among other things...

Here's what Google has to say about the doodles:

Today’s Doodle celebrates Nigeria’s Independence Day! On this day in 1960, the most populous country in Africa officially became a sovereign nation.

Independence Day morning starts with a nationally televised broadcast where the President of Nigeria addresses the general public. In Lagos, a green-and-white crowd gathers to watch the Nigerian Armed Forces perform military maneuvers. Later, many join in on the ceremonial raising of the Nigerian flag, and the cutting of an Independence Day cake.

The rest of the day is filled with bustling energy and upbeat fuji music as Nigerians hang out with friends and family. Plantains and chicken served with jollof rice isn’t just a popular meal — it’s a staple of Independence Day and Nigerian culture. Many take celebrations to the beach to dance and enjoy fireworks.

Happy Independence Day, Nigeria!
