Napoleon III, Emperor of France, saw his opportunity.
With the United States sundered and convulsed in civil war, he would seize Mexico, impose a C atholic monarchy and block further expansion of the American republic.
In 1863, a French army marched into Mexico City. In 1864, Maximilian, the brother of Austria n Emperor Franz Joseph, was crowned Emperor of Mexico. The French empire had returned to Nort h America a century after its expulsion in 1763.
Secretary of State Seward did nothing until the Union armies had defeated the Confederacy. Th en, he called in Gen. John Schofield, who had wanted to lead an army of volunteers into Mexic o to drive the French out, and instructed him instead to go to Paris. "I want you to get you r legs under Napoleon's mahogany and tell him he must get out of Mexico," Seward told Schofie ld. To impress upon Napoleon that the Union was in earnest, President Johnson, at the urgin g of Grant and Sherman, sent Gen. Sheridan with 40,000 troops to the Rio Grande.
Napoleon got the message. The French army headed for the boats, and Maximilian went befor e a Mexican firing squad.
