Which countries celebrate Thanksgiving?

Americans: reunion, carnival, shopping, eating
In the United States, like the Chinese Spring Festival, on Thanksgiving Day, thousands of people, no matter how busy they are, will reunite with their families and enjoy a sumptuous holiday dinner together.
The Thanksgiving holiday is also the most stressful time for American airlines, with almost every flight being fully booked and flight delays often occurring. But in order to reunite with their families and spend the holidays, people are probably willing to do so.
Every Thanksgiving, every American family eats turkey. Turkey has become a symbol of Thanksgiving, and they usually also eat some traditional dishes such as zucchini, creamed onions, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, etc.
Canadians: Celebrating festivals regardless of religion
Thanksgiving in Canada and the United States are not on the same day because Canada is located at a higher latitude and the grains mature earlier. Unlike the American tradition of commemorating the Puritan ancestors who settled in the New World, Canadians mainly thank God for the successful harvest. Thanksgiving Day is mainly to celebrate the harvest and to thank nature and God for bestowing abundant sunshine and dew for the growth of grains. It does not have any religious color. Therefore, Canada's Thanksgiving Day is earlier than that of the United States, and the celebration is scheduled for the second Monday in October.
Egyptians: Pretending to cry for corn
The ancient Egyptian harvest festival was held to commemorate their crop god Min. Their harvest season is spring, so this festival is held every spring. During the festival, the ancient Egyptians first held a parade, followed by a festive banquet. At the same time, music, dances, sports competitions, etc. are also their celebration activities.
When the ancient Egyptians celebrated the corn harvest, they often pretended to cry and be heartbroken. This was to deceive the "spirits" they believed existed in the corn. They were afraid that the corn that continued to grow after the harvest would make the "spirits" angry.
Greeks: Cakes and fruits were offered to the goddess of agriculture
The ancient Greeks believed in many gods, one of which was Demeter, the goddess in charge of agriculture, marriage, and fertility. The "Thesmosphoria" festival held by the Greeks every autumn was to commemorate this goddess. On the first day of the festival, married women build huts covered with leaves and place benches made of plants inside. The second day was a day of fasting, and on the third day a banquet was held, with gifts of corn seeds, cakes, fruits and pigs offered to the goddess.

Analysis on the origin of American Thanksgiving!

The origins of Thanksgiving can be traced back to the beginning of American history, originating from the early immigrants in Plymouth, Massachusetts.
These immigrants were called Puritans in Britain because they were dissatisfied with the incomplete religious reform of the Church of England and the political suppression and religious persecution by the King of England and the Church of England. So these Puritans left the Church of England and went to the Netherlands. Later, they decided to move to the uninhabited land across the Atlantic Ocean, hoping to live freely according to their own religious wishes.
In 1620, the famous “May flower” ship was fully loaded with 102 Puritans who could not bear the religious persecution in Britain to arrive at the Americas.
In the winter between 1620 and 1621, they met refugees who brought them daily necessities and sent people to teach them how to hunt, fish, and grow corn and pumpkins.
With the help of the Indians, the immigrants finally had a good harvest. On the day of celebrating the harvest, according to religious traditions and customs, the immigrants set a day to thank God, and decided to invite the Indians to celebrate the festival together to thank them for their sincere help.
On a Thursday in late November 1621, the Puritans and 90 Indians brought by Massasoit gathered together to celebrate the first Thanksgiving in American history.

They fired a salute at dawn, marched into a house used as a church, expressed their gratitude to God devoutly, then lit a bonfire and held a grand banquet, making delicious dishes from the hunted turkeys to entertain the Indians. On the second and third days, wrestling, running, singing, dancing and other activities were held.
The male Puritans went out hunting and catching turkeys, while the women stayed at home making delicious meals with corn, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, and fruits. In this way, the white people and the Indians gathered around the campfire, eating, chatting, singing and dancing. The whole celebration lasted for three days.
Many of the celebrations of that first Thanksgiving have been passed down to later generations.
