The Mexican Empire (Imperio Mexicano) is a constitutional monarchy in North America and Asia. Established in 1861 as a French client state during the Second French Intervention in Mexico, before gaining full autonomy in 1867. The country has been ruled by the Habsburg-Lorraine descendants of Maximilian I, the first (recognized) emperor of Mexico since its inception. Originally founded as an absolute monarchy, Maximilian I enacted many reforms during his reign, (mainly as concessions to the Liberal population of Mexico in order to foster stability) including the creation of a democratically elected parliament, British style constitution and monarchy, and a Liberal bill of rights. Since its independence, Mexico has become a rare success story in Latin America history for its stability and economic prosperity, with many former Spanish colonies coming under the control of the Empire, some by choice, and some not. Today, the country boasts strong institutions, a diverse and modern economy, high standard of living, Liberal values and ideals, and a powerful military capable of spreading its influence globally. The current Emperor, Maximilian II, has prioritized the Pacific as the theater of Mexican geopolitical strategy since his ascension the throne in 1965, investing heavily in the Philippines, and expanding the Empires military presence in the region. With the addition of Guam and the Mariana Islands to the Empire in 1970, Mexico has been securing its presence in the region, and intends to continue doing so.
