Google Doodles For Francophonies and Persian New Year

Two recent international Google Doodle logos courtesy of Zorgloob:
The first is easy, it’s the Persian New Year:

Google’s done the Persian New Year thing before, in 2006:

And 2005:

The second one, according to the translation, is to celebrate the International Day of the Francophonie:

What is the International Day of the Francophonie? No, it’s not a day for French people who are disingenuous, but rather a day to celebrate people who speak French, wherever they may live. Google ran the logo in the 23 (out of 55) countries where it has a Google site, running the same logo it has on that day for the last three years.
