      What's also funny is by the time of the congress of Vienna political Zionism, which at it earliest concept was still just the idea of a Jewish nationstate somewhere in the world and not in the levant specifically, had not been invented yet (and wouldn't be for over a decade). Its inventor (Herzl) was still a teenager, although he was an Astro-Hungarian Jew. He also specifically advocated for the establishment of a Jewish state in what was Ottoman Palestine (known in 1878 as the Vilayet of Syria and Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem), and generally any other land that was suggested to them in Africa, South America, North America, Europe, or even East Asia was considered a secondary option, as even when the British offered a portion of their East African Colony for the establishment of a Jewish state the Zionist Congress voted against establishing a state there.
      Essentially the idea that a Jewish state could be established in 1878 anywhere but maybe a small portion of a balkanized Pale of Settlement is a joke, no imperial power at the conference considered the forced mass resettlement of Europes millions of Jews and European Jews would likely revolt at the suggestion of a Jewish state as it would go against the prevailing belief of the time, which was to either remain in Shtetls and not anger the state so the state wouldn't kill them or force them to emigrate or to prove their loyalty to their fellow countrymen by assimilating as much as possible into the country in which they found themselves. The Dreyfus Affair, which helped change many Jews minds about the value of assimilation in Europe as a defence against antisemitism and marked a shift towards the popularity of political Zionism or emigration to the Americas, wouldn't happen over a decade as well.
      Just want to clarify I'm not upset by this its a silly video that already isn't realistic for a number of reasons and its funny that there is a Jewish quasi state within Austro-Hungarian Madagascar in 1878, just want to explain WHY this one aspect of the video is particularly absurd.

      Also is they somehow convince Italy that its colonies are at risk if the treaty get rewritten, then its UK that could be finding itself in navy disadvantage.
      Spain, Portugal and Netherlands maybe irrelevant.

      Germany would side with whoever Russia and Austria sides with at this point in history.
      Spain is in a civil war in this period and broke, unlikely to be able to hold on to their colonies let alone fight the British, and the Portuguese would probably side with britian their extremely long term ally.
