What is Cinco De Mayo?
Mexico stopped making payments to France because their country was in debt. So, France invaded Mexico to collect the payment. However, on May 5, 1862, in the city of Puebla Mexico, Mexican forces were able to defeat the well-equipped soldiers from France.
California was the first state to recognize and celebrate Cinco De Mayo, in the 1860s. So, every year, on May 5th the people of the United States celebrate this victory by remembering the people's cultures, history, celebrations with dance, drink and food.
