Many people confuse Cinco de Mayo with Mexican independence day.  Independence day is September 15.  Cinco de Mayo is celebrated mostly in the state of Puebla, where teh holiday is called El Dia de la Batalla de Puebla.  The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican’s army’s victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza Sequin.
