I honestly think Maria Theresa and the Austrian army in general deserves more respect for their performance in the War of the Austrian Succession. Maria Theresa's predecessor was an ineffective ruler who just recently lost against the French & Spanish (Polish War of Succession) and Ottomans. When Prussia took Silesia, France, Spain, Bavaria, Saxony and Modena all attacked Austria to make their territorial gains. Austria's only allies meanwhile were too far away to help the Habsburgs, yet the Austrian forces under Khevenhüller and Otto von Traun still survived against all odds by winning several important victories such as St. Pölten (1741), Pfaffenhofen (1741) and Piacenza (1746). While losing Silesia might be "humiliating", Austria still survived against all odds and even managed to be a more formidable foe in the Seven Years' War. None of this would've happened without Maria Theresa. We Austrians even have a military academy named under her honor.
Imagine how formidable an alliance between Frederick II of Prussia and Maria Theresa of Austria would be in the alternative Seven Years War of this timeline
I think Austria's prowess during that time always gets overshadowed by its terrible performance in WW1. Everyone always remembers a tired broken husk of an empire, but not the actual competent one that got and held all of these territories in the first place.
With a weaker Austria, the Ottomans would have tried to get minor concessions out of the Habsburgs in both wars. The Ottomans weren't very stable, but they were probably organized enough to gain concessions in the Translyvanian Highlands or even Banat.
Considering the Ottomans still had a good army during their stagnation (which was happening around this time) Id expect them to get some territories off the Habsburgs
@@tankpea2not too much Remmeber Russia could just invade the ottomans and most likely win so Russia wouldn’t allow the ottomans to get too much out of the habsburgs
@@AdvancedGamer- maybe , but it could be possible that Britain could intervene. And remember that the French-Ottoman friendship was still a thing. So , its not too likely that Russia would attack , its a possibility but not a certain ons
It wasnt until the early 1800s that cartography of the kind we are used to took off (admittedly the french did have that family that worked on that map of france for three generations beforehand)
Fun fact: The War of Austrian Succession helped foster revolutionary sentiment in America. New England had managed to scrounge troops together and conquer Louisbourg, an enormous French fortress city/privateer haven in Cape Breton. Louisbourg was despised throughout the Northeast; NY, NJ, & PA also contributed to the expedition. It was captured after a 6 week siege, and to the colonists it felt like _their_ victory- an imposing French fortress conquered by some boys from Massachusetts. However in the treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle, the British exchanged Louisbourg for Madras- leading to American feelings of betrayal, mistrust, and disregard. Less than 30 years later the invasion's spearhead, Massachusetts, would be declared in a state of rebellion.
True I guess, but I wouldn't call the rich local landowners wanting to ignore the British treaties with the native Americans so that they might conquer their land - and rebelling to do so - a revolution. More like a cynical coup.
I have two video ideas for you: 1. What if prussia managed to get a hold of bohemia? 2. A general video discussing the most and least reliable courses of history. Basically, what are the points in history where the timeline could have the easiest taken a different route?
Early mass Hungarian privileges within the Habsburg realm? You know you've created a cursed scenario when the de-facto creation of Austria-Hungary upon the Seven Years War's aftermath becomes a legit genuine possibility.
Charles was such a fool trying to secure the trone for his daughter with diplomacy when Eugene of savoy said " a full treasury and strong army would be better than signatures".
This whole scenario depends on the Bohemian nobility switching sides against Bavaria. The fact of the matter is that most of bohemian nobility WAS Bavarian, the Schwarzenbergs being the most famous house from there. If Charles VII. crowned himself the king of Bohemia like he did irl, just during a more successful war, most of them would fall in line. Over all i'd say that Bavaria could very well beat back the prusso-hungarian coalition, since the war of the Austrian succession would be shorter and there would be no silesian wars, which wouldn't leave the land devastated, hell, they might even reclaim silesia.
Hey, small correction of your map: The Duchy of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel between Hannover and Prussia consisted of two parts that you coloured differently on your map. Also, if you happen to see this, please make us (Brunswick) yellow. Thanks :)
Ever since learning about it, this event gave me an idea: What if the Peterloo massacre lead to the UK going through their own equivalent French Revolution?
Possible History video where the French seem to win but actually lose ? What a surprise! ^^ great content as always but I really starts to feel predictable:)
I'm not quite sure I can see the conclusion of the Austrian succession war being like that. One of the main reason in our timeline Austria got off lightly despite French kicking their ass in the lowlands was Louis XV's concern of preserving the balance of power and being worried about the next war he knew was coming, having the foresight of predicting Prussia joining GB and preparing the terrain for an Austrian alliance. In this timeline, I would have assumed the same, with him either securing the Prussian alliance or sparing the Hapsburg to secure them as an ally.
As someone born in one of the "smaller German states" (Waldeck-Pyrmont, where the northern part of Pyrmont became Prussian only in 1922) I don't know whether it would have been better or worse for my small home town to be part of Prussia so much earlier. Being the summer residence of the principality wasn't bad for the economy of the spa town with only 2k inhabitants. (and Waldeck-Pyrmont not being independent anymore might have led Willem III of the Netherlands to marry someone else and not Emma - who made an awesome queen and regent).
important India colony was sold to British to agree with the pragmatic function and the held up to the agreement and also regions in south were given to spin cos of it
And now i need:what if Ottokar II of Bohemia won and didnt lost austria to habzburgs(in this timeline habzburgs would be just swiss guys who ruled for some time in holy Roman empire )
The Franco-Prussian War definitely changes, but the outcome is very loose. France's control over Luxembourg can threaten the Rhine more than the pathetic invasion from Alsace that was attempted in our timeline. Though the expansion into the Sudetenland and Silesia can also probably boost Prussia, though I can see the war either ending in more a draw than complete and utter failure for Napoleon III. I also think the more unified Southern Germany would probably be more hesitant on joining a war against France, especially after what became of it over the past centuries. But hey, that's just a speculation coming from some random guy on the internet, so don't take my word.
Napoleon III know the french army was not ready to a major conflic but with the lack of support, less money and the fact he was stick he dosen't have the time to reform it. Napoleon III was not as good than napoleon to war but he was a really good emperor in diplomatic and reform. In this time line the franco-prussian war if start more late give more time to a more rich france to reform is army and a weaker prussian with less german follow their idea.
I'm from an ex Spanish colony (the P.R) and I am just as excited as you are! finally an interesting country that's getting alternate history and honestly I feel like all of Southern Europe needs more attention along with Latin America, Africa that's not Ethiopia, and Southeast Asia and most interestingly the Philippines.
That was interesting. I wonder what if the Habsburg lost the battle of Kahlenberg against the Ottomans. I think there are a lot of interesting scenarios where things could have gone differently for the Habsburgs.
The French holding Luxembourg would be a massive industrial aid, I think that in the end the Germans would end up taking it along with Alsace. And although germany is more disunited I still see Prussia having the upper hand here. As every European nation would be changed in some way, Prussia would be uniquely positioned to only have a better chance at taking over Germany
I’m eager to see what this years Halloween vibes will be first we had “what if the darkness literally kills people” then “what if Stallin commanded zombies in ww2” so it will be interesting to see what you have in store for us
I know it’s been a little while since you have done the video format for what if everything went right for X nation, but could you do a video on that for Portugal or Bohemia(Czechia)?
A few video ideas! What if the mensheviks came to power instead of the bolsheviks What if hobespier was able to stay in power What if china was able to not have the century of humiliation (or at least have been able to heavely reduce the demage) What if prussia was only able to form the north german confederation (unable to unify the southern german states) What if the english republic under cromwell was able to survive even if just a few decades longer
Video idea: What if the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth wasn't partitioned? I feel like this topic is not discussed as much and your video format would be perfect!
That could mean a lot of things, though. PH did already say he wants to make a "what if everything went perfectly for the PLC" eventually. But you might also mean that e.g. Russia wants to keep all the Polish lands, or that it will take just a bit and keep the PLC as a puppet, or something of the sort (which, as a Pole, is far less interesting to me :D but i'm sure it is also interesting)
@@maciejbala477 I meant the complete independence, just PLC being competent. I didn't know PH is already considering this project, It will be quite interesting, especially because I'm lithuanian ;)

Unrealistic but interesting suggestion: what if Christoper Columbus created the size canal in 1492? I’ve loved your videos for a while now and I hope you could create a video on this scenario
something I don't see mentioned that would have a great influence on world events is the endurance of the Anglo-Prussian alliance, in our timeline it ended because of Britain's separate peace during the 7yw which pissed Frederick off righteously. in otl the 7yw had an interesting effect of isolating Britain, something that would bite them in the ass during the revolutionary war, I don't know how much Prussia (presumably) intervening on Britain side would change but it would be nice to explore.
if I had to guess the dutch might've stayed neutral out of threat of invasion prussia would've used it as an excuse to extort france of wealth and britain would have a stronger seat at the negotiating table, perhaps not losing florida.
I wonder what in this timeline happens to the Saxon soldiers deserting from the Prussian Army to Hungary, and Francis Xavier of Saxony, Prince of Saxony and Poland.
In Inverness, there's an entire museum dedicated to the Battle of Culloden in 1745. When I went there, I was shocked at the lack of context given vis-a-vis the War of Austrian Succession
I think this different 7 years war being easier for Britain could've led to less American taxes, so no revolution, so no French debt and revolution and Napoleon. This is just a thought and I know it was hard to predict the future that far after divergence. It's also very possible that the war didn't change enough for Britain.
Ah yes, i imagine alliance of absolutist monarchy and young federation with no real shared interests (besides america hating british for a while before they both understood that trading is better for both sides)
@@typicaluser697 it’s way more complicated than that, but on the basis of it, they shared a lot of interests Both were expansionist states that wanted to grow and spread their influence As you mentioned, both hated the British They did business together such as the sale of Alaska, but also many other things during various wars “armed neutrality“ Russia even threatened the UK and France that if they got involved in the American Civil War on the CSA’s side that they would declare war on them
Russia dominates the Balkans even more since Austria is much less competitive. In 1829 Russia had no reason to fear an Austrian invasion of Wallachia and could send a bit more troops to Turkey. That weakens Turkey more, right before the Turko-Egyptian War, making it easier for Russia to demand more concessions in the Treaty of Hünkâr İskelesi. Which bugs England & France and makes them attempt to build an alliance with Austria. On the map you drew Bawaria seems like a perfect buffer state in the center of Europe between three great powers.
How about: What if the Chartists got what they wanted in either 1832 or 1848? Or at least, mostly - I don't think they'd ever get Annual elections, but they got everything else over the course of the next century. Rather UK focused, but I can see it having an effect on events like the Irish Potato famine, participation in the Crimean War or the purchase of the Suez Canal.
"What if everything went perfect for Italy, starting from 963 with a rebellion for independence of the northern italian states from the HRE, a 1432-44 confederation of Italian independet states which lead to getting a lot of not necessarily italian land together for irredentism etc, alliance kept with Spain that results in a better outcome for Italy in terms of colonialism (treaty of tordesillas basically gives Italy all of northern Africa and prompts them to start conquering it and through the centuries fight the Ottomans and get back The Holy land and gaining control over Egypt etc...)"
Look im going to argue what doomed maria Teresa wasn't "sexisim" but asking for help from the Hungarian nobility?! Thats not exactly a slam dunk. The fact that our royals had issues handling or relieng them is proof enough of that. And thats probably why she lost.
Couldn't they instead become one after taking the Habsburg HRE inheritance here? Such a huge expansion would likely encourage the Bavarian rulers to improve their nation's status accordingly.
@@gengarzilla1685 The Wittelsbach Duke of Bavaria would probably be crowned Emperor of Austria and after the reconquest by the Habsburg they would get the title King of Bavaria as compensation. Still, only someone of higher nobility (i.e. an Emporer like Napoleon, the Hapsburgs, or even the Pope) has / had the right to give someone a higher title
It was, until it wasn't. A real "What if everything went PERFECT for Bavaria would have had them repel Prussia and Habsburg Hungary in this alternate Seven Years War.
@@ivrugeIt was perfect for like... a second? But PH really should make such. Austria wouldn't exist. Bavaria would control the H.R.E and stop Napoleon?

Russia dominates the Balkans even more since Austria is much less competitive. In 1829 Russia had no reason to fear an Austrian invasion of Wallachia and could send a bit more troops to Turkey.
That weakens Turkey more, right before the Turko-Egyptian War, making it easier for Russia to demand more concessions in the Treaty of Hünkâr İskelesi. Which bugs England & France and makes them attempt to build an alliance with Austria.
On the map you drew Bawaria seems like a perfect buffer state in the center of Europe between three great powers.
I want more salt like a project made of salt
Could u make a what if everything went perfekt for Denmark
Sounds awesome but only because I’m Dane, also you misspelled “Perfect” which I am guessing is because you are from Denmark with that mistake
,,what if the clone wars spread to the cold war"
oh boy
This might be the next May 4th special…
How about: What if the Chartists got what they wanted in either 1832 or 1848? Or at least, mostly - I don't think they'd ever get Annual elections, but they got everything else over the course of the next century. Rather UK focused, but I can see it having an effect on events like the Irish Potato famine, participation in the Crimean War or the purchase of the Suez Canal.
What if the Maratha Empire unified India??
As a Bavarian man I love this
"What if everything went perfect for Italy, starting from 963 with a rebellion for independence of the northern italian states from the HRE, a 1432-44 confederation of Italian independet states which lead to getting a lot of not necessarily italian land together for irredentism etc, alliance kept with Spain that results in a better outcome for Italy in terms of colonialism (treaty of tordesillas basically gives Italy all of northern Africa and prompts them to start conquering it and through the centuries fight the Ottomans and get back The Holy land and gaining control over Egypt etc...)"
6:58 "what if the Clone Wars spread to the Cold War?" Is that a Star Wars scenario? Is it going to be some sort of seasonal special?
6:55 Every Modern Empire is GONE… 😭
THE EYES ARE BACK!!!!
Look im going to argue what doomed maria Teresa wasn't "sexisim" but asking for help from the Hungarian nobility?! Thats not exactly a slam dunk. The fact that our royals had issues handling or relieng them is proof enough of that. And thats probably why she lost.
Challenge: create a scenario with Austria staying a great power without it becoming an alternative Germany.
Great video
At that time Bavaria wasn’t a kingdom. They only became one after the conquest of the HRE by Napoleon
Couldn't they instead become one after taking the Habsburg HRE inheritance here? Such a huge expansion would likely encourage the Bavarian rulers to improve their nation's status accordingly.
@@gengarzilla1685 The Wittelsbach Duke of Bavaria would probably be crowned Emperor of Austria and after the reconquest by the Habsburg they would get the title King of Bavaria as compensation. Still, only someone of higher nobility (i.e. an Emporer like Napoleon, the Hapsburgs, or even the Pope) has / had the right to give someone a higher title
Can you please do a what if 1953 iranian coup d'état failed video
Basically a "What if Everything went perfect for Bavaria"?
I didn't know that Bavaria getting absolutely destroyed a few years later was perfect for them
For all of 3 seconds
It was, until it wasn't. A real "What if everything went PERFECT for Bavaria would have had them repel Prussia and Habsburg Hungary in this alternate Seven Years War.
@@ivrugeIt was perfect for like... a second? But PH really should make such. Austria wouldn't exist. Bavaria would control the H.R.E and stop Napoleon?
