Ok, I'm looking at my calendar this morning and I see September 16th is Mexican Independence day. Ok, What is Cinco de Mayo? I always thought that was your Independence day, and also I thought not too long ago you said something about it being your independence day? So what is it?
 
15-16 September 1810 the day when Mexico started the independence war, it seems that most of the country thinks that it is actually the independence day.

27 September 1821 the real independence day, it is a shame that nobody knows that, and it isn't a national day.

5 May 1862, Batalla de Puebla (the battle of Puebla), is when Mexico started to defeat France. That war started because of some supposed debts we had with England, Spain and France, only France declared war, because they wanted to establish a new empire here.
 
Ok, I had always thought that Cinco de Mayo was the Independence day.

Don't worry Luis, we celebrate two presidents birthdays every year, that always happen to fall on Mondays. How shitty is that?
 
True, very True. Just like to think that if I was famous enough to have a holiday made out of my birthday, they'd celebrate on my birthday, not the nearest convenient weekend.
