Do you mean Puebla in 1862? If I'm correct there was a conflict between the Mexican Army against occupying French soldiers
Answer:
Names and labels in a culture denote their heritage and culture. Some people have labels due to their accomplishments in a culture and they hold great importance and honor to them. In some cultures, a person is meant to have multiple names which consist of their heritage and family lineage.
Therefore the labels and name in every culture has its own significance that defines their roots. It also provides them a sense of belonging in a foreign land and becomes their identity that speaks volumes for them.
