Anglo-German-Austrian-Italian Quadruple Alliance vs. Franco-Russian Entente.
USA and Spain busy in their little separate fight.
Who would spain most likely side with? What about the Ottomans?I wonder if somehow the Spanish-American War can sort of merge with a Fashoda War. That would be interesting.

Its likely, since someone will offer them something to join in. The only question would be who would want to end up at war with the USA!

Then throw in the Ottomans somehow, and voila you have a World War.

1)Italy is likely to act Great-War-like (not to enter in the war, and selling his alliance to the higher bidder)
2)Also please note that Quadruple Alliance clauses would not be binding in this scenario, thus Austria is less likely to intervene.
3)Last point is,
-why should germany attack france (germany is already satisfied by its western border)?
-why should france attack germany (war with britain is a big war all by itself)?
European war on Morocco?Germany might attack France to gain influence elsewhere (nab Morocco for one, they wanted that for a while).
He was, but that would mean Italy be less willing to attack france.Wasn't Nappy III in some way tied to Italian unification (I know nothing of the subject, so don't yell at me)?

Additionally, even in Eurofed's unlikely scenario, France and Russia are not overmatched. Not at all. Instead of France battering against the Germans in ill-advised offensives, it will be the Germans doing the reverse against a French Army oriented in a defensive posture; the Schlieffen Plan hasn't been created yet.
