OTL, they got it for a time after the Seven Years War (in 1763); but what if they got it 50 years earlier, after the War of Spanish Succession? I asked something like this a few years ago, but didn’t get much response:
What do you guys think?FWIG, during Queen Anne's War, Spanish Florida was widely depopulated, with the only surviving colonial outposts being Penescola and St Augustine, both of which came under siege during the war (the former by the Creek Confederacy, the latter by Carolina colonists). If one or both of these outposts had fallen, would that mean that Britain gets Spanish Florida earlier? And if so, what does that mean for French Louisiana? After all, the only Gulf port the French had at the time of the war was Mobile, which isn't far from Pensacola.
