    Celebrate this Cinco de Mayo with Fineline Settings

    CINCO DE MAYO is a holiday in honor of the two thousand loyal Mexican-born and mix-ancestry men who, under the command of General Ignacio Zaragoza, defended the small town of Puebla de Los Angeles from six thousand invading forces under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1862.

    A man name Benito Juárez came into the role of president of a financially crippled Mexico during the mid-1800s. Due to the ruined fiscal standing that the nation was in, Juárez was forced to default on the debts owed to several European governments.

    While Britain and Spain came to a peaceful resolution after negotiations with Mexico, France (specifically Napoleon) sought to utilize this opportunity to seize control of territory in the name of Bonaparte’s growing empire.

    On May 5th, 1862 two thousand men devoted to Juárez fought against six thousand French soldiers from early morning to dusk. The French forces receded, having lost almost five hundred of their soldiers; while the defending army of Puebla de Los Angeles lost fewer than one hundred of their own men. This victory over the invading French became symbolic to the people of Mexico, and a source of great celebration!
