The day of Thanksgiving is an indigenous celebration of the countries of the North, specifically Canada and the United States, where a large banquet thanks God all the good and abundance in the family, is a tribute honoring with a good meal which is shared as a family, usually with a roast turkey as the main meal. The history of Thanksgiving dates back to between the 14th and 15th centuries, when European colonizers began arriving in America. Given the joy and excitement produced by having arrived safely after such a complicated and unpredictable journey to unknown lands, the captains of the ships organizedcelebrations of gratitude to God for allowing them to arrive alive. The ships of the colonizers were provided with everything necessary to celebrate however, they decided to share their tradition and joy with the inhabitants of the new land they encountered.
The miscegenation began and with the wine also the settlement of the colony, immediately afterwards the customs were mixed, adding the cultural characteristics of the local region to those brought from Europe and this is how the turkey enters history, the dances, songs and expressions of appreciation for the arrival of good times for harvest to the celebration of Thanksgiving.
Today civilization has advanced and evolved in the way of behaving, Thanksgiving is celebrated in a more modest way among families and close friends, of course, in non-agricultural cities, Thanksgiving serves to be grateful for the abundance of money, good health and prosperity as a family. It is very important to point out that despite being a celebration with the same characteristics in the two northern regions where it is celebrated, they are held on two different dates. In the United States, the Thanksgiving holiday is celebrated on the 3rd Thursday of every November, while in Canada it is celebrated earlier, specifically on the second Monday of every October.
