How plausible is it for the kingdom of prussia, sometime after 1701 to build a colonial empire? What would be the best places for it to begin its overseas expansion?
Assuming their is still a 7 years war like OTL, their empire could surely grow during this period;
how would this effect the maritime powers? could prussia build a fleet that could beat the Portuguese or Dutch?
Maybe by the turn of the century even the french or spanish?
