So many of my threat ideas I just get from browsing Wikipedia, and this is another one. I came across a page about the German Colonization of the America's, and how they had attempted to form colonies in Venezuela, Nicaragua, Paraguay, and Southern Chile in the 1500's. So, what if these attempts had been more successful, and the Holy Roman Empire had colonies. Would Prussia inherit these colonies? Would the colonies make Germany richer or poorer? Here is the link.
