Like the U.S., the eagle is an important symbol to Mexico. What does it represent on the Mexican flag?

According to legend, the god, Huitzilopochtli, appeared as an eagle to the Aztecs, which is a symbol of the Sun. The flag's stripes also have historical meaning, with the red representing the blood of national heroes, the green the Independence Movement, and the white the Catholic faith's purity.
