Patriot's Day was created after September 11, 2001. It's a day to commemorate America and the American Spirit.
Constitution Day is a day created to remember the signing of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1814 - shortly after the War of 1812 (remember the National Anthem?).
The Constitution is America's most important document, which is still used today.
