AHC/WI Holy Roman settler colony 1700

Brandenburg did the colony thing. Bavaria tried it, there were plans for Bavarian-funded colonies near OTL New York state. Sweden (part of the HRE after Westphalia) held parts of Delaware and ports in Africa (as did Denmark).

Maybe Bavaria somehow makes a success of its colonial venture?

Not happening.Bavaria's completely landlocked.

A more realistic chance would have been Austria establishing colonies through the Ostend Company.An attempt was made to colonise the Nicobar Islands.
 
Sweden (part of the HRE after Westphalia) held parts of Delaware and ports in Africa (as did Denmark).

To say Sweden was "part of the HRE" is a tad misleading, I think. By that standard we could say that Britain was part of the HRE after 1714 as well.
