it was in this war that there was the battle of Camerone, where 63 French soldiers fought against 2000 Mexican soldiers, after several hours of combat the French were only 4, they had out of ammunition and were exhausted but still had the strength to take their bayonets and charge the Mexicans to the death. A Mexican officer stopped them and asked them to surrender, the last 4 Frenchmen agreed to surrender only on condition that they keep their weapons and that the Mexicans treat the wounded, the Mexican officer told them "we refuse nothing to men like you"

@Monster Hunter The mexican republicans Saw the confederates as "slavery Empire and Bad nation" Juárez and Lincoln were close, and the french Empire support the CSA, Even the one of the generals and politicians of here "Santiago Vidaurri" tried to ally with the CSA and mix both wars, It didnt happen but maybe in an alternative war scenario Mexico and USA would fight toogether aganist french army and confederates. In 1864 and 1865 the french army and conservatives startted to losse the war because the guerrillas caused a lack of war supplies and the war fronts were stopped, it wasnt easy for the french advance to the North of Mexico it was a desert, the french army maybe controlled the cities and capital but they didnt get control over rutes, roads and rural zones and this make it complicated for them get supplies, the french decided to leave for the reasons. 1.- the end of american civil war 2.- the future war aganist Prussia 3.- the front in Mexico was paralyzed

three facts stoped the French to hold Mexico during their invation: 1.- the fierce resistance from the republican mexicans that ambushed their supply lines all over the territory, french arms were superior in open field but in the guerila warfare was another story. 2.- in the USA the Union (who suported the republican Mexicans) won over the confederacy (who suported the french) this created lots of pressure against the invaders. 3.- the Prussian army began to threaten the french borders, this gave Napoleon III no other option than retreating his troops.

Podría parecer la misma guerra pero la primera se dió por el norte directamente, la cual ganó México, concluyendo está invasión en la batalla de la Angostura. Posteriormente la segunda invasión del 47-48 fue por el este atravez del puerto de Veracruz y en contraste con la anterior donde el ejército estadunidense estaba compuesto entre milicias voluntarias y regulares, en la segunda invasión EUA uso una fuerza expedicionaria de regulares bien equipada y preparada, la cual mediante una campaña ráfaga logró capturar la Ciudad de México. Un factor importe para el éxito de la invasión fue la descoordinacion entre algunos mandos del ejército mexicano, ya que el presidente Santa Ana en un momento definitivo de la invasión abandono a un general con el que tenía rivalidades en un momento criticó de la batalla. Por otra parte se puede señalar el problema del sistema de abastecimiento, el cual estába mal organizado, esto se ve en la batalla de Churubusco donde el congreso le envío al general Anaya calibres que no correspondían. Por último un mal sistema de saneamiento, pues de este se encargaron mujeres voluntarias y no profesionales del ejército. Estados Unidos si tenía un buen sistema de abastecimiento y saneamiento pagado y mandos con un sólo objetivo. Por lo que puede ver para México no fue compensatoria la victoria en la batalla de Puebla, pues muchos factores hubo alrededor de las invasiones por parte de Estados Unidos, es más, se puede conciderar la victoria contra el imperio de Maximiliano apoyado por el imperio francés de mayor éxito, pues se venció a una fuerza invasora tras una guerra civil, la cual estába conformada por varios de los mejores soldados del mundo, como los suavos y la legión extranjera.

Taylor), pero victoria estratégica del ejército invasor que retuvo su posición y Santa Anna debió retirarse por falta de suministros básicos y temor a una insurrección en la capital. Más allá del desorden de abastecimiento y saneamiento, México sufría un escandaloso desorden político y muchos estados se negaron a aportar tropas. La Batalla de Puebla NO se libró contra el Imperio de Maximiliano, pues éste se instauró solo tras la victoria de la expedición militar francesa. La caída del Imperio ocurrió cuando Francia retiró sus soldados y dejó a Maximiliano en desventaja militar contra el ejército juarista, más grande y pertrechado por EUA.

Did you know that this particular battle was the first defeat the French suffered in more than 50 years. Infact, the last battle they had lost was the battle of waterloo. This battle was so devastating to French moral that its general, the Comte de Lorencez, went mad and was subsequently replaced by a more experienced one that helped lead the fall of Puebla the second time. It was also the battle that helped shield North America from French imperialism and began an area of mild collaboration to kick out European powers with the U.S. from this continent.

Lorencez never went mad. Although in disgrace, he was made Grand Officier de la Légion d'Honneur in 1866. Later on he was inspector general from 1864-1870 and was put in charge of a garrison in Toulouse at the begining of the Franco Prussian war.

My homeland 🇲🇽 has been attacked in the worst moments of anarchy, by superior enemies, such as the United States, and France. The Mexican political anarchy of the 19th century was exploited by the worst neighbor that could touch us, the United States, in its expansionist policy, who stole from us in the most unjust way a large portion of national territory. But empires are not eternal. I'm Mexican-Italian but when the country calls me I will be ready to defend it. Greetings from Xalapa, Veracruz.

When Mexico refused to repay their loans, France, the United Kingdom, and Spain got angry at Mexico for not repaying their loans. France, however, had the deepest grievances. The Battle of Puebla is of more significance to the United States of America than many people realize. At that time, the Civil War was at its height, and Union forces were stretched to their limits. France, under Napoleon III, wanted to support the Confederacy, in an attempt to tear the United States apart by possibly reclaiming the Louisiana Territory. The Battle of Puebla, however, changed all that. By the time the French was able to send more troops, the Battle of Gettysburg had broken the back of the Confederacy, thereby showing the French that the Confederates were in no position to be the kind of trading partners that they and other imperialist governments in Europe were looking for. Once the Civil War ended, Lincoln and Johnson openly sent aid to the Mexican troops, thus putting the kibosh on the arrogant Louis Napoleon's schemes once and for all.
@Dannyboi-re7vb10 ай бұрын
The reason Mexico refused to pay the loan was due to the fact it was with interest and it was compounded as the total amount every single Mexican govt has owned . They played both sides the liberals and the conservatives for years and when the fighting was over gave them the bill for all parties involved.

The U.S. sent more than aid, U.S. troops were rushed to the Mexican border as well. This sent a clear message that if the French wanted to try to persist in their efforts, American forces were prepared to cross the border and help the Mexicans kick them out. On January 31, 1866, Napoleon III ordered the withdrawal of French troops.

Both Spain and France had claims upon what is now the western USA. The USA was offered an opportunity to purchase the French rights (because they figured England would take them by force). Mexico claimed the Spanish claims due to victory in War against Spain. Thus the USA did the same thing to Mexico that Mexico did to Spain. Except the USA occupied Mexico all the way to Mexico City. The USA didn't claim the settled areas of Mexico, rather the areas we had claims to from the Louisiana Purchase. And, the USA paid Mexico for that land.

During this war, I think it was one of the most crucial fights fought during the 1860's, Because whoever won this war directly influenced the outcome of the American Civil War. Had Mexico fallen to France, the Confederacy would've had a new stream for supplies and munitions, and the US would've struggled to keep this supply line cut down as it would've been outside of US jurisdiction, meaning a whole lot of political and diplomatic baggage for the US. Napoleon III made it clear he was sympathetic towards the Confederate cause and wished to supply them in their war efforts. Rumored to have even been preparing an invasion plan into the US with considerable reinforcements to the rebel cause, although I find it somewhat unlikely it does show how serious Napoleon III was in assisting the Confederate states. What Mexico did do for us though is show us why Guerilla and unconventional tactics will forever be the mainstay of an at home force fighting for their freedom. From the Americans, to the Vietcong, and now currently the Ukranians.

During the 19th century, Mexico 🇲🇽 experienced political anarchy as a result of coups d'état, and changes in the government system (Federalism vs. Centralism) that was taken advantage of by foreign powers. The United States 🇺🇸 in its expansionist desire, (the USA has no moral quality to criticize Russia for its actions in Ukraine) stole half of Mexico's national territory through a war of conquest, taking away from Mexico its provinces of Alta California, New Mexico, and Texas. . General Ignacio Zaragoza (born in Mexican Texas) knew very well what it means for your homeland, your ancestral territory, to be stolen by another country, Zaragoza would not let Mexico be dismembered again. In the invasion of Mexican territory, Mexico not only faced the French 🇨🇵 army, it faced the foreign legion, Algerians, Belgians, Austrians. The battle of Puebla meant Mexico's victory against the most powerful army in the world. Participating in the defense of Puebla were indigenous Zacapoaxtlas, Afro-descendants from Veracruz, European settlers, Italians, Spaniards, even French, all united by a feeling of MEXICANITY. France later occupied Mexico, but was gradually defeated by Mexican guerrillas. Proving thereby that there is no small enemy.
