Maximiliano Y Carlota

El imperio de Maximiliano y Carlota en M xico es controvertido: unos creen que fueron unos advenedizos que llegaron al pa s para ocupar un trono que no les correspond a; otros sostienen que fueron ben volos, e incluso m s liberales que el propio Benito Ju rez. La discusi n -una de las m s acaloradas entre los apasionados de la historia- sigue y seguir , porque estos dos personajes son fascinantes; fueron unos pr ncipes que abandonaron su espl ndido castillo en las costas del mar Adri tico, para venir a M xico, una tierra donde l perder a la vida y ella dejar a la raz n.

The empire of Maximilian and Carlota in Mexico is controversial: some believe they were opportunists who came to the country to claim a throne that was never theirs; others argue they were benevolent rulers, even more liberal than Benito Ju rez himself. The debate--one of the most heated among history enthusiasts--continues and will continue, because these two figures are fascinating: they were princes who left their splendid castle on the shores of the Adriatic Sea to come to Mexico, a land where he would lose his life and she would lose her mind.
