Why they celebrate the fetes de Geneve 

They clebrate the fetes de Geneve because many years ago a king wanted to apropiate Geneve.
One night many soldiers tried to atack Geneve, An old woman heard them and took the soup she was cooking and trow the soup to the soldiers and the soup burn the soldiers then the police apear and took the soldiers, all Geneve was very thankful with the old woman because she helped Geneve.

Thats why in the fetes de Geneve they eat soup.
