"Cinco de Mayo—or the fifth of May—is a holiday
that celebrates the date of the Mexican army’s 1862
victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during
the Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867). A relatively
minor holiday in Mexico, in the United States
Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration
of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in
areas with large Mexican-American populations."
