But there are other parts of the continent like Grenada and Barbados which celebrate their own versions of Thanksgiving. The USA celebrates the nationwide Thanksgiving holiday on the fourth Thursday of November, while Canada dedicates it on the second Monday of October.<\/p>\n<p>For countries like the USA, the Thanksgiving festival is one of the major celebrations of the year. The tradition is not limited to a grand feast, turkey, and family reunion; it also involves a thanksgiving parade, involves charity work, volunteers to serve food at homeless shelters, etc. If we focus on the Canadians, then they solely on the splendor of early October and the harvest!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"South_America\"><\/span><strong>South America:<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3010 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_5.jpg\" alt=\"Thanksgiving Day\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_5.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_5-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_5-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_5-270x180.jpg 270w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s move into the south part of America, where the USA&#8217;s Thanksgiving tradition reflects in the southern cultures. The notable country that celebrates Thanksgiving or harvest festival on the same day as the USA is Brazil. Though the USA has a significant influence on tradition, this Latin American country has its own essence to bring to the festival.<\/p>\n<p>The holiday is Dia de A\u00e7o de Gra\u00e7as, and it commences with an early church service in which churchgoers express their gratitude for the forthcoming autumn harvest season. After that, folks spend their day at the carnival and enjoy some local thanksgiving delicacies. Brazilians enjoy the identical Thanksgiving Day cuisine as Americans, except that they substitute jabuticaba, a grape tree fruit, for cranberry sauce.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Asia\"><\/span><strong>Asia:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3014 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_3.jpg\" alt=\"Thanksgiving Day\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_3.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_3-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_3-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_3-270x180.jpg 270w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When we move west from the American continents, we see harvest festivals in Asian countries like China, Malaysia, India, South Korea, Vietnam, Japan, and others.

On this day, Chinese families gather for a feast and observe the full moon together.

Makar Sankranti, Baisakhi, Lohri, Bhogali Bihu, Gudi Padwa, Nabanna, Onam, Pongal, and Ugadi are all regional harvest festivals celebrated through the different states of India. This beautifully exemplifies the genuine meaning of unity in diversity.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Oceania\"><\/span><strong>Oceania:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As we travel through Oceania, we will see a Thanksgiving festival on Norfolk Island, Australia.<\/p>\n<p>A tiny distant island amid the Pacific Ocean celebrates Thanksgiving every year on the last Wednesday of November. It is observed as part of the American tradition of Thanksgiving Day. The island celebrates the festival through events, church services and spends the day with their loved ones.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Africa\"><\/span><strong>Africa:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Countries like Ghana, Liberia have dedicated a day to celebrate the harvest. In Ghana, the tradition differs from that of the United States. However, in Liberia, it is nearly identical to the USA except for the date, which is the first Thursday of November every year.<\/p>\n<p>Ghana&#8217;s harvest festival is also centered around thankfulness. The Homowo festival is the traditional name for the festival, which honors the Ga tribe&#8217;s ancestors&#8217; perseverance amid a famine centuries ago. For the harvest feast, special meals are cooked, such as kpokpoi.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Europe\"><\/span><strong>Europe:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3013 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_7.jpg\" alt=\"Thanksgiving Day\" width=\"770\" height=\"515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_7.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_7-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_7-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thepanelstation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Thanks-Giving_770x515_7-270x180.jpg 270w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Let us make our way to our final destination, Europe. Germany has a harvest celebration called Erntedankfest. However, the date is not fixed for the entire country; it changes depending on where you live. Rural religious groups mainly observe it, and the local agrarian communities express gratitude and honor their crops on this day. The festival isn&#8217;t simply celebrated in Germany; it&#8217;s also celebrated in most German-speaking countries, including Austria and Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p>Thanksgiving Day is also observed in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. British and Dutch versions of Thanksgiving are very similar to American Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Take_Away\"><\/span><strong>Take Away:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Thanksgiving Day is about family reunions, expressing gratitude to the farmlands, farmers, and crops.
