Cinco De Mayo Party Ideas
Cinco De Mayo is a date that commemorates an unlikely Mexican army victory over French forces in the Battle of Puebla in 1862. America celebrated with Mexico as a defeat of French troops meant those same troops wouldn't be making their way to US territory during our own Civil War.
