∙ 9y ago
In 1863, with the United States engaged in its Civil War, the French, under the rule of Napoleon III invaded Mexico and enthroned their puppet, the Hapsburg Maximilian. This of course violated the Monroe Doctrine, but that had already been violated by the British with their policies with the Republic of Texas and their ideas about the US West coast. Nevertheless, when the US Civil War ended, the US placed an army on the Mexican border and ordered the French to withdraw. Napoleon III removed his troops. Maximilian remained, was captured by Mexican troops and was executed.
