Okay, so France doesn't give Louisiana back to Spain because handwave;
Spain wants to keep it because she's afraid of the precedent being set for the rest of the Spanish Empire if she starts letting pieces go.
At the same time American settlers keep piling up to the Mississippi and even crossing over without Spanish permission, stirring up the Indian tribes.
Obviously Spain should just sell it, but sometimes countries don't do the obvious- at least until they have to.
I'm assuming the upriver portion would be quickly overrun. How long could Spain hold New Orleans? How about the war at sea?
