The abstract paper on Cinco de Mayo and this one that talks about the influence of the United States military on Middle East countries such as Iraq, Bahrain and Yemen have a lot of similarities. My paper talked about Cinco de Mayo; that translates to 5th of May. It is a holiday celebrated in the Mexican City of Puebla and other parts of the country including the U.S cities that have a high number of Mexicans citizens. The holiday commemorates the unlikely victory of the Mexican army over French army that was supported by Great Britain and Spain.
This abstract goes into details to show the U.S intervention and influence in these countries while my paper shows the influences of the European countries on the United States and Mexico in the 18th century. So, this victory of Mexican army’s over French forces came after the war between America and Mexico between 1846 and 1848.The United States celebrated this victory because Napoleon III had a very strong and feared army which the United States did not want to face. So, this day is important to the America due to the gain or benefit they got from Mexican driving the French army out of the picture.
The U.S intervention in the Arab countries and the French invasion of Mexico has some differences too. While the French intention for invading Mexico was purely based on territorial expansion, the intention of the U.S to intercede in the Middle East countries is to flush out terrorist groups and restore peace. The two abstracts also explain events in different time periods; the French invasion took place in the 18th century while the U.S invasion on Middle East has happened in the 21st century.
