It's what Canada and the USA call their harvest festival. What does your country call it?

Maybe "Herbstfest"? But more of a local thing. "Jahrmarkt" is even more local. Both are some kind of village-wide market events, the first more fall-themed (and grapes because "Weinland" switzerland) with changing locations each year.

Looks like american thanksgiving is how christmas is for us?

We have three eating holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, and they're all about the same. There's loads of Germans and Dutch up here so people keep a lot of the European traditions, and I'd say you're probably right that Thanksgiving is more like your Christmas.

Wow what a shame. That's super uncommon, only a handful of countries in the world don't have a recognized harvest festival.

Are you from another planet? Or a small tribe somewhere in the Pacific?

Every nation on the planet that plants food celebrates harvest.
