The Texas Revolution or call it the Texas War of Independence.
Robert E. Lee was not wounded during the Mexican-American War. He served in the conflict as a staff officer under General Winfield Scott and was not injured in battle.
Nobody. You are confusing the Mexican War of Independence (1810-1821) with the French Intervention (1861-1867). The puppet leader set up by the French was Maximilian I (1832-1867)
Perhaps it is easier to say what the US navy did do during the Mexican War. They undertook:Bombardment of GuaymasBattle of MontereyBattle of MulegeBombardment of Punta SombreroFirst Battle of TabascoSecond Battle of TabascoFirst Battle of TuxpanSecond Battle of TuxpanThird Battle of TuxpanBlockade of VeracruzSiege of Veracruz
The battle of Yorktown was the biggest turning point and last battle. The Patriots won their independence after that
it celebrates the Mexican army's victory over France in the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican war. it is NOT Mexican Independence day.
During the French-Mexican War, the Battle of Puebla was fought on May 5, 1862. Mexican forces won the battle against the much larger and better equipped French Army. Many confuse Cinco De Mayo with Mexican Independence Day, which is September 16. Mexico gained independence from Spain on that day in 1810.
The Alamo was battle between the freedom fighters for Texas independence and the Mexican Army. While many Mexicans were killed in the battle, all of the fighters in the Alamo were killed.
Mexican Independence Day gets confused with Cinco de Mayo. Mexico gained independence from Spain on September 16, 1810, so that is their independence day. Cinco de Mayo celebrates the Mexican victory at the Battle of Puebla during the French-Mexican War on May 5, 1862.
The Alamo was a battle fought during the Texas war of independence from Mexico (1835-1836), not during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). It didn't mean much to the final outcome of the war, as it was almost by any accounts a massacre: 2,400 Mexican troops killed all but two of 182-260 Texans at the Alamo. The battle has been used, however, as a symbol of the Texan Independence Movement with "Remember the Alamo!" as the battle cry with most significance.
The Texas Revolution or call it the Texas War of Independence.
David Crockett died at the age of 49 at the Battle of the Alamo on March 6, 1836. This occurred during the battle for Texas's Independence, before the Mexican-American War started.
They both commemorate important events in the history of Mexico. Mexican Independence is celebrated on September 16 and celebrates Mexico's independence from Spain on September 16, 1810. Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Mexican victory at the Battle of Puebla during the French-Mexican War on May 5, 1862 and is celebrated on May 5.
NO!!!! ~ The 5th of May or Cinco de Mayo, is the commemorates the victory of the Mexican Army over the French during the Mexican-French War of 1861-67 at the Battle of Puebla. In the United States, many of Mexican heritage use this point on the calendar to celebrate with gatherings, dancing, parades, good food, etc. So it is NOT the Independence Day as the US has JULY 4, but a celebration of victory in battle.
