Yes Great Britain was the country who bounded the citizens legally to attend the church on the day of Christmas.

In 1955 a law was passed who bounded the citizens of United Kingdom to attend the church on Christmas by coming on their foots to the nearest church.

This law was repelled in 1969. But this law prevailed for the whole 14 years.

Christmas day was viewed differently by various country around the world. For example in the united kingdom a law often quoted regarding Christmas is holy days and fasting days acts of 1551 which stated that everyone must attend church on Christmas day without using any means of transport and therefore people would walk to church. However the law was repealed in 1969. Hence, the correct answer is Great Britain.
