Mexico remained neutral during the Civil War. In 1864 before the Civil War was over, Napoleon 3 of France invaded Mexico & set up a puppet empire ruled by Maximilian. After the Civil war in 1867, the Mexicans defeated the French, executed Maximilian, & made Benito Juarez the 1st President of Mexico.
