As I understand it, the French intervention in Mexico was initially supported by Britain and Spain as well. It seems plausible that alternate circumstances could have led the British attempting a similar invasion, even if it was a rather unique occurrence due to the reign of Emperor Napoleon III.

If the British did the same thing the French did in Mexico, supporting a puppet emperor to dominate the country, what would happen? Who would the emperor candidate be? And would the British succeed or fail at overthrowing the Mexican government?
