"Cinco de Mayo, which celebrates a victory by Mexico over French troops, is also celebrated in the United States."
Explanation: Cultural diffusion is the spread of cultural elements (practices, ideas, customs) from one group to another. The adoption of a Mexican holiday by people in the U.S. is a clear example of that spread. (The Spanish textiles example is also diffusion, but the Cinco de Mayo example is the clearest.)
