Kingdom of Mexico (The Orange Outback)

The Kingdom of Mexico (Spanish: Reino de México; French: Royaume de Mexique) was the name of Mexico under the leadership of Napoleon Bonaparte's adopted son Eugène Rose de Beauharnais and his family from 1812 until the end of the Mexican Revolution in 1927. The realm was created as a French response to re-establish a foothold in the Americas since it lost it in the 1760s.
