Hey guys!

I'm a newcomer to the forums so forgive me if I'm not posting this under the right section, but do you know of any interesting European imperial projects by any of the European Great Powers during the 19th century that could've had great ramifications, but failed for some reason? I'm thinking about stuff like Napoleon III's Mexican intervention. Please, also note how a successful outcome of "your" project may have changed the geopolitical landscape of the timeframe in question.

Thanks in advance.
