But letting the French keep it wouldn't be very smart i think, maybe the Ottomans and Austria can get some things there.

Who says AH would have broken apart in WWI cp Victory ?? They could still make another ausgleich with the czechs, or maybe reform into a Federalized Monarchy. I don't know much about the Ottoman Empire though.

They could still make another ausgleich with the czechs, or maybe reform into a Federalized Monarchy, there were never really Independeny movements, most just wanted more autonomy and equality.

Would France be able to keep French West Africa in a WWI CP Victory ?
Or is it more likley that the CP take it ?
So a AustriaHungary taking colonies is impossible too.
Though karl feared being dependent of the German empire, so perhaps AH could demand some colonies to expand itself a bit.
Thats the only part it could take. Germany gets the Majority of Middle Africa and the britains would not give away South Africa i think.
I never said they would; just pointing out that Austro-Hungarian West Africa is unviable and undesirable.

If they get anything overseas, it's surely more likely to be from Italy - Eritrea and Somaliland. Libya will probably go back to the Turks.
The problem is that AH don't have a navy to support/protect colonies and what he get will probably be simple a drain of resources and frankly except in case of a very quick victory A-H has other problem to resolve like try to mantain unity as the devastation of the war and the rising nationalism don't bode well for the future of the empire aka yes the more probable future for the empire is death.
