I've tried searching for this but never really found anything so thought I would just come and ask it.
What would it take for France to get involved in ACW. There are whole posts and arguements dedicated to British involvement in ACW but nothing about France. I don't mean having France tagging along with Britain and joining in with some European campain again the USA but rather them on their own recognising the CSA and sending troops to help.
During this time France were messing around in Mexico and must have been aware that if the US won then they would do something about France's involvement in Mexico as it was against the Monroe Doctrine.
