1)Iturbide is successful in finding a major European semi liberal monarch from a powerful family ,armed with a foreign army to sit on the throne .
2)Make the US civil war to go on for a few more years and at the same time make the French army stay in Mexico for a little longer ,have the resistance leaders die ,then you have a well entrenched Maximillian who can fully harness the resources of his nation with a powerful military ,in this scenario ,i am virtually making Mexico a puppet of France ,but a very powerful puppet .


Simply avoiding the American war of Aggression(Also known as the Mexican American war) wouldn't do much good except for Mexico looking big on the map .To be a great power you need something more than larger size!

And for the record -I am a very patriotic American military engineer who lives in Nevada ,yet i consider the Mexican American war as unfair from a political point of view .
