Well as a good mexican i have to know some history of my country, that is why i want to share you some information about what happens in each September 16th...
First, in this day but 200 years ago the independece of Mexico started in 1810, so it will turn a Bicentenary of freedom!!
During 1810 the country was in chaos and some masses of population started to rebel, one of those leader was Miguel Hidalgo, he In the early hours of September 16 rang the bell of his little church, calling everyone to fight for liberty. This was the beginning of the Independence War, which lasted 10 years.
That is why in each September 16th, all mexican decorate their houses, cars, streets, everything with the flag's colors (green, white and red) and also get together in a house or in the central park with their friends and family in order to accompany the governor or president in the shout.
This is Hidalgo and other rebels
