Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday in the United States, and Thanksgiving 2020 occurs on Thursday, November 26. In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Native Americans shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual colonies and states. It wasn’t until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November.

Thanksgiving Day is an annual national holiday in the United States and Canada to celebrate the harvest and other blessings of the past year.

However, we credit <u>President Abraham Lincoln</u><em> </em>for declaring Thanksgiving a federal holiday in 1863, during the American Civil War. He called it a national day of “Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens,” to be celebrated on the last Thursday in November.

Hope this helps you, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend and a wonderful Thanksgiving bye! Your welcome.

What were the causes of the War of 1812? Was it a justifiable war for the United States? Did pre-1812 British policies threaten
Pani-rosa [81]

The War of 1812 was caused by the tensions between France and Great Britain due to the French Revolutionary Wars. The consequence was that both France and Great Britain intended to restrict commercial maritime rights from the U.S. with each country. In general, U.S. did not consider this to be fair, as they intended to continue trading with France as they did before any conflict.

The supporters of the war were divided among the Americans geographically.  People from New England were against it, while  South and West supported it, thinking it would give good reputations for the U.S. abroad.

The war did not threaten US independence, but commercially, the war disfavored them. Native Americans were the ones to considered this a not justified war.
