For example, when he took over power from the elected Mexican President Benito Juarez, he really thought the Mexican people wanted him there. It's hard for me to understand why he thought Mexicans wanted a foreign born dictator over the guy they already elected.
This is a painting of Maximilian accepting power from the people of Mexico.
Also, Mexico was not rich, but he led a life of luxury. Check out the photos I took of his house when I was in Mexico last year.

| Staircases, chairs and gold clocks |
- Would you want Max to be your leader? Why or why not?
- If you were one of Max's trusted team members, what would you tell him?
- Are there leaders like him today in the world? Who are they and what country are they ruling?
- What would you do if you were Benito Juarez, the elected president that Max had pushed out of power?
The post that i used was " If you were one of Max's trusted team members, what would you tell him". i would tell him that it not worth it to fight over something that has not meaning to or such vaule or worth. there is a reason to live and not die, the point is to stay alive as long as you can. they say that life is to short so hang on to it.
