The weekend is almost universally viewed as Saturday and Sunday by most of the world, though this varies by region. For example, in Muslim countries, Friday is considered the weekend (sometimes Friday and Saturday). In Israel, the weekend is Friday afternoon to Saturday night (some get all of Friday off). In some Christian countries, only Sunday is considered the weekend.

North Korea officially has only Sundays off with 9-hour work days, but it's believed by some authorities that many people there never have any days off.
