A bad day for the French!
1821 Napoleon Bonaparte dies in his second exile, aged 51, on the island of St Helena in the middle of the South Atlantic. 1862 a bigger celebration in California than in Mexico actually?? CINCO DE MAYO holiday! celebrating the defeat of Napoleon III's occupying French forces at the Battle of Puebla!
