Q. Cinco de Mayo is a national festival to celebrate the victory of which country over French Forces?
Answer: Mexico
Notes: Cinco de Mayo, which literally means May the fifth in Spanish, is a celebration every year in Mexico and the United States. It marks the military victory of Mexico on its soil over French forces in 1862. In late 1861, when Mexico was being led by President Benito Juárez, a French fleet attacked the Mexican port of Veracruz and moved to the capital Mexico City. The Mexican forces defeated the advancing French troop, which helped to establish a sense of national unity in the country.
