During the Second French Intervention in Mexico, the French Army often far outnumbered the Mexican Army. At the Battle of Puebla, however, though outnumbered, the Mexican Army won a miraculous victory. The Mexican Army would go on to win the war. As another result, Cinco de Mayo was established as a holiday in the US.

Although it is much more celebrated in the US than in Mexico, it deserves to be remembered as an important part of New-World history. If France would have gained the upper hand, Mexico would have become a puppet state. From there, it is difficult to imagine how future events would have played out.

[W]e must remember the true history of the day. In celebration, we honor those brave souls who fought against the establishment of a puppet state.
