Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Battle of Puebla, fought on May 5, 1862, where Mexican forces, led by General Ignacio Zaragoza, achieved a surprising victory over the French army, which was considered one of the strongest in the world at the time. This battle symbolized Mexican resistance against foreign intervention and the struggle for national sovereignty. Although the French eventually occupied Mexico, the victory at Puebla is celebrated as a significant moment of pride and resilience for the Mexican people. It has evolved into a broader celebration of Mexican Culture and heritage, especially in the United States.
