Thanksgiving is primarily an American holiday with deep historical roots in the United States. While it's not widely celebrated outside the U.S., there are instances of its observance in other countries. Canada, for instance, celebrates Thanksgiving on the second Monday in October, albeit with some variations in traditions and timing compared to the American holiday. Additionally, some American expatriates and residents living abroad may continue to celebrate Thanksgiving, often sharing the traditions and feasts with local friends and communities, bringing a touch of this American holiday to different parts of the world. However, its observance beyond North America is limited, and it remains primarily an integral part of American culture and tradition.
