38,493 Frenchmen were sent to Mexico during the Second Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867). However, troops from other French allies also were involved, such as 7,859 Austrians, 1,462 Belgians and 900 fighters of different nationalities (mostly from French colonies in Africa) who were part of the French Foreign Legion.
