Do other countries have similar manifestations of their culture? The First Thanksgiving. It was in the act of union that Uncle Sam first emerged, a figure that was born from the coming together of the native peoples of America with their internal creation-mysticism and the inherent manifest destiny of the newly arrived colonists from across the ocean. This gloaming magic became spiritual, and the act of thanksgiving gave birth to the spirit of a new America, an America built on self-evident truths, that all men were created equal. Uncle Sams first act was to bless the food of the first shared meal - the corns of the natives. The salted meats of the Europeans. And in this one, singular moment, the future was bright for Sam - or Father Samuel, as was his name then. The act of coming together was the first faint stirring of a new nation, though what would come next would change Sam forever, twisting his pure optimism into something bloody and cynical. As for other spirits of nations, that hasn't been explored yet... --- "It is too easy being monsters.
