Gibraltar (to France/Spain)
Hanover (to France/Austria)
Portuguese Territory Losses:
Colonia do Sacramento (to Spain)

At this particular undefined point in the war:
All the above territory changes are a result of the current state in the war. They do not represent the state at the final peace.
Sweden, Russia, Saxony and Prussia have exited the war. (Hence the Prussian peace & it's dismemberment is a done deal. However if you disagree with the assignment of Prussian lands say why and offer an alternate suggestion)
Russia will swap East Prussia for eastern Polish territories.
3rd Treaty of Versailles does NOT revoke planned exchange to France of the Austrian Netherlands
France Currently has troops in the Austrian Netherlands
Great Britain has been kicked out of the Mediterranean by Spain/France
Equivalent 1759 Invasion of Britain by France failed w/ destruction of many Transports.
In this version of Battle of Quiberon Bay, Britain won, but it was nearly a Pyrrhic victory.
French troops in Germany are now freed up and capable of returning west, allowing for a possible 2nd invasion attempt. (possible because of British losses, the unescorted option might work)
Spanish-France troops and Anglo-Portuguese troops are stuck in a stalemate in Trás-os-Montes. (they were not repelled, but nor can they advance)
All of the countries involved are at this point financially drained and very war weary, and looking for a way out.
Great Britain tries to bring the Dutch into the war again. They haven't decided but are very much not happy at the prospect of a French border.
Empress Elizabeth of Russia dies later than normal, no Miracle of the House of Brandenburg Peter's reign is almost non-existant (he is killed earlier as well)
Fredrick the Great is Dead, killed in battle late in the war, Prussia's defeat followed soon afterwards.
The war has been active for probably more than 7 years.
Post war, if most new world colonies are not recovered, France might pursue a Mediterranean strategy.
France isn't going to give up the Austrian Netherlands or Minorca (to Great Britain).
Austria isn't going to give up Silesia.
Spain/France isn't going to give Gibraltar back.
Britain doesn't want France in the Austrian Netherlands.
The Dutch don't want France in the Austrian Netherlands. (but while neutral they have no say)
King George III doesn't want to lose Hanover. (but Parliament might ignore him)
How does this war end?
What will the final territories look like?
Do the Dutch stay Neutral?
Who will Britain turn to next for continental allies? Dutch, Denmark, the Ottomans even?
By the above state of things who would you say actually won France, Britain, Neither?
Is it only an armistice until the next war to resolve whatever each side didn't like about the outcome of this one?
I know there is not detail of the hows and whys.. just assume that the above is how things turned out, and speculate on how to create a peace. (even if everyone thinks that peace is temporary)
