I wonder if countries can have their own particular feast days...

The answer is yes. In the United States we have Elizabeth Ann Seton (January 4), John Neumann (January 5), Isidore (May 15), Peter Claver (September 9), Isaac Jorgues and John de Brebeuf and companions (October 19), Frances Xavier Cabrini (November 13), and Our Lady of Guadalupe (December 12). Individual diocese, or even parishes, can also have their own proper feast days.
