Cinco de Mayo is often misconstrued as Mexico's Independence Day, even by people of Mexican descent. However, Mexico's Independence Day falls on September 16, and although Cinco de Mayo and Mexico's Independence Day are both important patriotic celebrations, their historical significance is very different. While Mexico's Independence Day celebrates the country's freedom from Spain, Cinco de Mayo commemorates Mexico's continued struggle to form a stable government long after declaring independence from Spanish rule in 1810

Nah, nah... Cinco De Mayo is basically the celebration of the 4000 Mexican soldiers who defeated 8000 French soldiers in Puebla, Mexico.
