Hey, guys. I've been inactive for quite a while, but I've had an idea bouncing around in my head for a bit now and I was wondering if the community would be interested in it. Basically, the Couronian colony established on Tobago in 1654 succeeds. The POD would be the Dutch colonizing ship being destroyed in a storm, hampering Dutch colonial efforts and eventually paving the way for the recognition of Couronian authority over Tobago. While Courland will be slightly wealthier than IOTL due to a successful plantation colony, and may indeed establish some smaller settlements on Trinidad as they later tried to IOTL, they will be annexed by Russia as it happened, meaning that the colonies of Courland will be taken over by Russian administrators. And that's when things get interesting.
