Thanksgiving, the national holiday in the United States which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November,  was originally celebrated in October 1621 by the Pilgrims, along with the native Americans,   after their first harvest in the New World.   Pilgrims held a Thanksgiving celebration again in 1623 because, after the original feast to which attended 90 Native Americans and 53 Pilgrims, the latter began to gather in the small harvest they had.

In the 1700s, specifically from 1774 to 1789 The Continental-Confederation Congress appointed one or more thanksgiving days each year, or in other words several national days of prayer and thanksgiving. This practice was continued until October 3, 1789, when President George Washington proclaimed and created the first Thanksgiving Day designated by the national government of the United States of America:

Finally, On October 6, 1941, the congress passed a resolution fixing the fourth Thursday of November as the date for the holiday, beginning the next year in 1942

What is the difference between executive order and a law? Which one is stronger and why?
Sauron [17]

The EO only gives authority within the executive branch and those federal agencies. The EO doesn't have the legal weight of a law of the land. It can be rescinded by both the president and/or Congress when they provide oversight. A law of the land requires a vote by Congress to be rescinded

 

EXECUTIVE ORDER or EO are exclusively prerogative of the president that do not need the promulgation of congress. The president can issue EO left and right, without the approval of congress because it is exclusively intended for executive branch of the government and not the legislative body like congress. While a law are passed inside the congress for their deliverance and approval.

Diferencias Característica de un país q posee diversidad geografica
Bad White [126]

La diversidad geográfica es el conjunto de elementos físicos, humanos y culturales, diferenciados unos de otros, que confluyen en un mismo espacio geográfico. La misma se expresa en las diversas características físicas de una región o espacio, como por ejemplo el clima, la vegetación, la fauna, los cuerpos de agua, los tipos de relieve existentes y el paisaje, entre otros.

Por ejemplo, en <em>Perú </em>encontramos montañas, valles, desiertos y llanuras. Estas diferentes características geográficas hacen que sea un país con una gran diversidad natural.

También se puede diferenciar en las características humanas o culturales de los habitantes de una región en particular (fisonomía, lengua, arquitectura, costumbres, alimentación, etc.).
