Thanksgiving - United States
An annual celebration in North America, which dates back to the time of settlement. Pilgrims from Europe had found the transition to the NewWorld to be more difficult than they thought, and without the Native
American people, who shared food and survival knowledge, thesettlement would have foundered. Thanksgiving is a time to reflect onwhat one has to be thankful for, and pay tribute to the early settlers andtheir struggles.
