Happy Cinco de Mayo folks! Which is NOT Mexican Independence Day, FYI. Its the day that marks the battle where underdog Mexico defeated military powerhouse France in 1862. The French military at the time--led by Napoleon-- was considered one of the most advanced and undefeatable. The French saw resource-rich Mexico as an important step in colonizing the Americas ...until they got to General Zaragoza and his troops in Puebla. britannica/EBchecked/topic/118001/Cinco-de-Mayo
