Answer:

The correct answer is A. The Cinco de Mayo holiday celebrates the Mexican victory over France.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cinco de Mayo is Mexico's national holiday in honor of the victory of the Mexican forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862 against France.

This holiday is sometimes called the Mexican counterpart to St. Patrick's Day. It is celebrated with Mexican dishes, national music and dancing. On this day, large festivals and carnivals are held. In some areas, celebrations can last for a whole week.
