What might have happened if the Austrians and their German allies defeated the Prussians and their German and Italian allies? There could be various factors that might effected this, perhaps the French support the Austrians, maybe the Austrians not the Prussians are equipped with the needle gun, maybe the Prussians fail to combine their forces soon after the battle of Langensalza, due to heavy rain say, leading to a Prussian defeat in Hannover, maybe a stray shot hits Moltke killing him early in the war. But what ever the POD is the Austrian alliance wins the war, the Prussian not Austrian lead coalition is shattered, Austria keeps its Italian provinces, at least for a time. How does this effect history?
