    Cinco de Mayo

    What is Cinco de Mayo? Mexico was invaded by the French several times and one of the largest fights was won by the Mexican army led by General Ignacio Zaragoza on the 5 de Mayo of 1862.

    Mexican immigrants working in California mines celebrated the victory and over the years it all became a confusion! Many American people believe that the 5th of May is Mexican Independence day!

    September 16, is when Mexico celebrates its independence from Spain.
