5 important events in mexico's history?regal theaterI recommend the following because the average person knows little about them, they're unusual.
1. "La Malinche." Slave, interpreter, secretary, mistress, mother of the first "Mexican." her very name still stirs up controversy. Many Mexicans continue to revile the woman called Do?a Marina by the Spaniards and La Malinche by the Aztecs, labeling her a traitor and harlot for her role as the alter-ego of Cortes as he conquered Mexico. They ignore that she saved thousands of Indian lives by enabling Cortes to negotiate rather than slaughter. Her ability to communicate also enabled the Spaniards to introduce Christianity and attempt to end human sacrifice and cannibalism. Herself a convert, baptized Marina, she was an eloquent advocate for her new faith. She is regarded as the Benedict Arnold of Mexico. A traitor is often called a Malinchista.
2. The Pastry War between France - Mexico, 1838
It's name is better suited to a Musical Comedy than a conflict between Nations and calls up visions of armies bombarding each other with ?clairs, Fruit Tarts, Napoleons and even Strudel. But on April 16, 1838 a French Fleet began the blockade of Mexico's east coast seaports, launching a war.
