They wear it so that people remember the people who died, because when people died on the field, poppies started to grow all around.

I think you mean where abouts on the body? In the UK; females should wear it on the right side (as this is where war widows wore their husbands medals) and males should wear it on the left. The leaf should be pointing at 11 o'clock to signify the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Remembrance Day was first called Armistice Day and was first observed in Australia in 1919 on the first anniversary of the armistice ending the hostilities of World War I. This was done also by most nations that had been involved in the fighting of WWI. In 1945, after World War II, England and Australia changed the name to Remembrance Day. The United States changed the name to Veterans Day but the meaning of Remembrance Day is more similar to the US Memorial Day.

Yes. Some poppies are raised to be sold as flowers, some are raised to make opium, which is made into heroin or morphine.

My neighbor gave me some seeds from her poppies last fall and I liberally spread them around my gardens. She told me this would be the only way I would be able to grow my own poppies and that they could not be transplanted. I was upset when I noticed them coming up here and there but in the worst places for example, under a bush, practically hugging other plants or in huge clumps so I decided I was going to dig them up and try moving them around since they would not survive anyway. To my surprise they are all doing extremely well and so now they will grow in just the right places I want them to be. I thought this was pretty darn amazing especially since I am not a seasoned gardener. I guess it just goes to show that poppies really can be transplanted and all I did was pluck them out of the soil, poke a hole in another spot and dropped the poppy seedling into it and covered it up. Something else I did might have made a difference I'm not sure but I always water my transplants with Miracle Grow Transplanting feed and it seems to work for me on all my transplants.

We celebrate by wearing a poppy and attending memorial Services normally held by a monument honouring the fallen soldiers of the First and Second WW also, the Korean and the Afghanistan wars.

Red Poppies symbolize the vast amounts of blood shed by combatants from both sides . The Poppy was also used because of their tendency to grow upon the cemeteries near Flanders and the popularity of the poem "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae :

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place; and in the sky

The larks, still bravely singing, fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

Loved and were loved, and now we lie,

In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:

To you from failing hands we throw

The torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die

We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

In Flanders fields.

We still celebrate it because it was an important moment in history. Men fought for our freedom and they won.

Based on my research on some sites detailing poppies, there is no scent. But there are fumes that rise up when poppies are harvested that have a soporific or euforic effect on the brain.

Remembrance Day was chosen to honor the sacrifices of military personnel who died in World War I and subsequent conflicts. It is observed on November 11th to mark the armistice that ended the First World War in 1918. The day serves as a reminder of the horrors of war and the importance of peace, encouraging reflection on the impact of conflict on individuals and societies. Its symbolism, including the red poppy, represents remembrance and the hope for a future free from war.

Remembrance day is always the 11th November. There is always a 2 minute silence on the Sunday closest to Remembrance day. Remembrance day is to remember all of those people who died in the army in Britain, we do this by selling poppies everywhere and a certain % goes to The Royal British Legion to support all the soldiers injured and badly upset or hurt, this also helps families too.

For all the lgbt humans hunted down and killed in the holocaust, which unlike the others they hunted down and killeed it took a considerable amount more years before the German government admited it was wrong

Because they represent poppies from Flanders in Belgium. In this particular region thousand of lives were lost during the first world war. Poppies grew in the fields after the war.

So the poppies don't directly represent the fighting at Gallipoli but are used to remember the dead from all of WW1

I'm just wondering if you are mixing Remembrance Day up with Remembrance Sunday.

In the United Kingdom, although two minutes of silence is observed on 11 November itself, the main observance is on the second Sunday of November, Remembrance Sunday. Ceremonies are held at local war memorials. Along with a big parade in London.

Yes they do.
