IOTL, Sicily-Naples was the great price Austra ganed out of the War of the Spanish Succession (beesides the Southern Netherlands, or what at that point had remained of them), which, with a Bourbon on the Spanish throne, it overall lost. However, even that compensation price was not to last, and got lost again already 17 years later in the War of the Polish Succession.

So is there a way for Austria to hold on to its WotSS prices, at best while also holding on to the Southern Netherlands as IOTL? And what would the effects of an Austran South Italy be?
