Re-enactment Of The Battle Of Puebla At The Peñón De Los Baños, Mexico City
A representation of the Battle of Puebla is taking place at the Penon de los Banos in Mexico City. Documents from the National Institute of Anthropology and History and the National Museum of Interventions indicate that during Benito Juarez's presidency, due to the country's bankruptcy, Congress issued a decree in 1861 that suspended the payment of debts to European powers for two years. This led England, Spain, and France to form a triple alliance aimed at pressuring the Mexican government to repay the debts owed to each country. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
