History of Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo means "fifth of May" and is an annual celebration held on May 5th. The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican Army's victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. Cinco de Mayo is sometimes mistaken for Mexico's Independence Day which is celebrated on September 16th. In the United States, Cinco de Mayo has taken on a significance beyond that in many parts of Mexico.
