I have been thinking of something like this for a while. Would it have been possible for Spain to have colonized the 13 colonies, and their colonies in our timeline at the same time? Would they have been overstretched?
It just makes me think of what could have resulted in North America, if they were under Spanish Control, well the 13 colonies and the majority of the continent. What is likely is that their Empire would fall apart, maybe? Other nations could use this as an excuse to take over what remains, such as Britain, Netherlands, and France.
This means no founding fathers, no American revolution...at least not yet. Those regions would surely become independent at some point, though the empires that ruled over them can kick the can down the road.
This means no napoleonic wars, or at least as they went in our time line.. It would delay everything, I would imagine. The British would likely become the winners in North America unless something happens, and with the 13 colonies, well what would be that area would have a Spanish culture, and they would more or less be...different from the rest of the British colonies in North America, like Quebec in Canada today.
What are your thoughts?
