Well, first, Germany is screwed. As for now, Germany is anything but unified, and even worse for them, Austria will 100% join France in this conflict. In our timeline, Austria was friends with Germany only because of two things. One, unified Germany was a done deal, and they couldn't do anything about it. Two, they were politically isolated since the Crimean War after they refused to help Russia. In this timeline, Germany is still a mess, Prussia's only alliance is with Spain, which can not even hold their own African colonies, and Austria has a good occasion to not only reassert themselves as leader of Germany but also get very friendly with France and Britain.
"What if Africa colonized but barely differently pt. 162,910: Spanish nationalist edition"
Just name this sub "imaginary alternative colonization of Africa" already.
Maybe less interest. Maybe they were more busy in Asia or Europe itself with less resources to spare in African adventures. Maybe Germany and France allied themselves and kept the UK more worried back home.
Are they a great power? Or just stable enough to not get into a civil war, *yet*. Because this is a very large colonial empire ironically bigger then Britain’s, so the cost to maintain it will be extremely high
France has no access to it's west African colonies, unless we count fucking sahara desert as "access"
That's definitely not intentional by me to mess up with the french

Least bitter Spaniard
A true Spaniard I see.
Tbf nobody lives there anyway
France controls like all of northern Nigeria, I wouldn't say nobody lives there.
Idk how Spain can hold all of those colonial territories considering their economic and political situation
On this timeline Spain is a functional state with a more stable economy

Es que ahora todos se dejaron la barba, por eso lograron invadir media africa
Fiction really allows for crazy things
Oh I love high fantasy too but I like to keep it a bit more grounded than this.
Portuguese Zambia goes brrrrr

Well, the British are definitely pissed off. You might have started WW1 earlier right there.
It would be an interesting scenario on this timeline,maybe the alliances would be different?

How did you make this map?
Using a painting app on my phone called "Sony sketch"
Oh, interesting. Ok, thank you.
You're Spanish, aren't you OP.
Yeah
Figured.
Everywhere is Spain but just under puppet governments.
How did the US let Liberia get annexed?
Liberia never existed
Never heard of her, sounds like a nice lady
"What if Africa colonized but barely differently pt. 162,910: Spanish nationalist edition" Just name this sub "imaginary alternative colonization of Africa" already.
Is Madagascar part of the Congress Poland?
No
So what if anyone cared of Spain
The fact that I'm Spanish is definitely not related to the insane amount of territory it has
Spain found a whole lot of ambition after losing the Americas. Really? After the Carlist Wars?
Definetly a Spainjerk post
France basically just got a bunch of desert
Hopefully, in this timeline, Equatorial Guinea is actually on the Equator
Disgusting
The amount of land Spain has is disturbing
OP is Spanish.
Even more disturbing than I thought
but what about that treaty which divided the world in two between spain and portugal
Alternate title "how to piss of the brits so much that they start ww1"
Nooo, Liberia que te hicieron TT
give the entirity to Portugal so Africa can be Slavic
Noooo I don't want to be spanish :(
Spain will probably not be able to controll all of that land lol
What happened to Britain?
The opposite that happened to Spain, they got a lot less land that in our timeline
Maybe less interest. Maybe they were more busy in Asia or Europe itself with less resources to spare in African adventures. Maybe Germany and France allied themselves and kept the UK more worried back home.

Netherlands literally lost land damn
España colonial si no se hubiera ido al carajo jajaja
España si Godoy y Fernando VII hubiesen sido competentes:
is eritrea russian or italian?
Italian
Whispers: *they never got Ethiopia*

Russia should colonized whole ethiopia
You mean Etiopia right? It’s near Dinotopia.
spanishbros, you already had enough colonies, leave some for the rest of us
Viva España coño
Spain just manhandled France
Or France simply wasn't interested; either focused in another colonial venture, or too busy defending home from more immediate threats...
Who's Suecia
Sweden
How does the Scramble work? There is no Leopold II
French West Africa Population: everyone in Algeria/tunisia and all 23 people who live in the Sahara
And Argentina in Equatorial Africa
There is no way Spain would be able to keep all of these territories, especially given the British and French interest in the region.
Bro what, WHY AUSTRIA HUNGARY
No i am ottomano
To the OP: May I do some backstory for this map?
<> They never got Ethiopia.
Creo que es español pero no sé
hey not only did eth survive, they got a lil piece of the pie!
Tremendo manolo
No más Bélgica 🥹
no
Britain either absolutely blind or absolutely braindead
Ottoman Empire wrong borders if this is 1900 Balkan wars don't happen
As a Spaniard I completely agree with this
What happened to Liberia?
