OOC: I was thinking that the English Civil War had been averted, for one thing, or possibly ended with a quick Royalist victory, but events in France might have been diverging even before that.
Also OOC: We might want to clarify the situation in North America as well. Given the mention of some sort of "Colombia" it sounds like at least one English colony survives the Family War--perhaps Virginia remains while much of New England is annexed by a victorious France? And then afterwards some portion of the French colonies become independent as *Louisiana...
*OOC If the northern French Colonies go then I think it would be called Quebec for simplicities sake. What I'm imagining is Colombia being Virginia south while Quebec is the colonies north. Independence wise I think Columbia gets independence through French aid, and Quebec gets a lot of help from Colombian and English aid (causing England to go bankrupt, again). I see these states being essentially the same with the exception of Columbian being English speaking, and having Slaves. Further down the line we might see the two coming together with Columbia removing the Slaves.
Louisiana could be the name of the union?

How does all this effect the balance of power in Europe? Does this butterfly away events like the Sicilian Revolution? Or would there still be copycat revolutionary waves regardless?
