Austria-Hungary

[Walter]

The UK is not the worlds only superpower here, unlike in OTL.  It's a major power amongst other major powers.

That would depend on the stats we're starting with... :)

An 1869 event has the effects of pushing back previous events?  Can't see it.

Like I said a bit earlier, if Italy was unified during the 1850s or 60s, then I doubt that they would have any time to bother with something across the Mediterranean at this point, despite Tunisia's proximity. They'd be too busy getting things sorted in Italy itself and unlikely to bother with the economy of another nation in 1869.

Basically, the reasoning there is that the mod doesn't want to be responsible for 2 major powers, but A-H is too important to the European situation to leave undriven.

Important? Nah. Just cut it up. Give the Western and Southwestern bits to Italians the Southern and Southeastern bits to the Ottomans and the Nothern and Northeastern bits to Russia. That way there is no need for you to be responsible for two nations. ;D

An updated version.  The fleet's a little bigger, the naval infrastructure smaller.
