How late can Napoleon call off the invasion of Spain? What if he did so? Spain, I suppose had the third best navy in the world, next to the UK and France, or were Holland and Russia better? Spain had all those delicious colonies to tempt the UK from more important things.

Now Russia is harder, its defying the Continental System, but maybe a way can be found to maintain the peace. Perhaps Russia would be more pliable without France's Spanish misadventure and not defy Napoleon.

What can Napoleon hope to accomplish? Can he make the UK let him keep what he has before the OTL invasion of Spain? Can he keep Austria, Prussia, and Russia in line without the Spanish distraction?
