The war on the European mainland is more brutal in terms of loss of life, but I'm still trying to justify the financial aspect. I have France pulling out of India completely DURING the war as a selloff measure and throwing the troops that were there into the European theater. But yes, Ten Years War meaning the same war, just declared earlier and lasting a touch or two longer. The Battle of Hastenbeck goes the other way, for starters. This has a huge ripple effect.
I have to be honest here. My POD for this WHOLE timeline is Marco Polo brings a rudimentary printing press back with him from his travels because he enters Korea and not just China. So what you've read is the beginning of like, part 7? I just started with the era of history in this timeline that I knew more about...looking to turn this whole thing into a book...I just need to flesh out some character identities and some dialogue. I should be finished with this project in about 458 years. I'm married and have a son on the way this month, so this will likely be a WIP for a long time.
