United States of America: Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving, celebrated annually on the fourth Thursday in November in the United States and Canada, is an event in which families get together and collectively give thanks for their blessings. This celebration usually includes a dinner consisting of stuffed turkey, sweet potatoes, cranberries, and pumpkin pie. The generally accepted origin of Thanksgiving is a similar gathering of the Pilgrims and the Native American Wampanoag tribe in 1621.
