What if France Won the 'French and Indian War'?

Plush Avaliable Until April 30th: bit.ly/3gNYMHa
The Seven Years War was the original World War. And its ramifications, were many. Yet it can't be simply summed up in one video. So this is the start of a new series. One where France wins the Seven Years War, and in this case, French and Indian.
How does this change colonization? A lot. What else did you think.

Those islands were completely depopulated by the Brits during the late 18th century (twice, IIRC). The current French speaking population there are descendents of settlers from post-revolutionary France and do not have any historical ties to New France. Sure, France owned the islands on paper but they were just empty rocks for a while. They do have a modest amount of shared culture with the rest of Canada, due to mass media, travel and education (while most residents get higher education in France, some opt to go to Quebec and New Brunswick). They're viewed as French by French Canadians and they view themselves as such, albeit with a greater affinity with Canada and North America.

[@bliblablubb9590]

Something which expands the "What if" even more, is the idea that maybe the french revolution could have pushed nobleblooded, military men into exile. But instead of other european powers they retreat to french america. Their expertise in the new world, and more importantly at disposal to the natives is an interesting factor to consider.

Tecumseh during this timeline would be wild as he would establish prophetstown and begin expanding everywhere the French couldn't reach him. I think the Natives would realistically stand a chance against the Anglos had this occured

[@paranoidrodent]

The French generally had fairly good relations with most indigenous populations except the Iroquois Confederacy (which was a longtime British ally). Native trade networks and populations were actively part of French economic activity in New France. Intermarriage was also more common between French colonials and indigenous peoples, especially among the French traders who actively interacted with the natives. I could easily see the French encouraging the formation of an allied and organized indigenous nation as a counterbalance to the British colonists. Odds are the French would view it as a vassal state or protectorate but lack the inclination or manpower to prevent it gaining autonomy. So long as the Brits remain as a common enemy and the French don't plan to encourage mass migration, good relations would just make economic sense to them. Exactly how this major change in circumstances plays out for Tecumseh's life story is anyone's guess. Wild indeed!

[@bcvetkov8534]

@@paranoidrodent you know that is honestly a good point as well. I feel like in order for France to keep New France, Napoleon would have to win Trafalgar and Nelson would still have to be killed at that battle. That way naval Hedgemony wouldn't be an issue anymore.

[@paranoidrodent]

@@bcvetkov8534 If the French Ancien Régime avoided the cost of the American Revolution and gained extra colonial wealth from India (assuming that they won the Seven Years' War as decisively as the British did in our timeline), the financial crises that triggered the French Revolution probably get pushed back at least a few decades. The timing of Napoleon's rise gets disrupted and all sorts of butterfly effects occur. Does he fade into obscurity, become a revolutionary in Corsica, or perhaps end up leading a coup that replaces Louis XVI directly (skipping the revolution as we know it)? He lacked the social status to match his ambition and talent in the old system but it is hard to imagine he doesn't somehow do something. Heck, just imagine if he spearheaded Corsican independence and then expanded into Italy, triggering Italian unification decades ahead of our timeline. It gives his Roman inspired aesthetic a whole new level of authenticity. Mussolini didn't have the chops to revive the Roman Empire, but Napoleon focused on Italy rather than France? Hmm.

7:26 La Marseillaise plays in background

[@ronin3381]

You mean ‘La Marseillaise’ and it wasn’t solely the anthem of Vichy France. It has been the anthem of most French Republics.

[@whenzdinner]

@@ronin3381 sorry, my bad for my ignorance

[@emarley05]

The most widely accepted anthem of Vichy France was "Maréchal, nous voilà". Keeping the Marseillaise wasn't a very good idea because it could be used as a battle rally against the nazis

[@casualdejekyll5168]

I can see France annexing British held Rupert’s land, mostly because it was even less populated than French America, and because Rupert’s land was already a fur trading colony, so it’d fit right in with the rest of French North America.

[@giantWario]

The thing is, it's not just that the Natives and the French colonists would be stronger, the Thirteen Colonies would be much weaker. In 1770 in the real world, they had a population of 2 million. In 1830 it was nearly 13 million. That growth did not come from birth rate but from immigration and without the expansion to the west, immigration in the Thirteen colonies would be considerably slower. In fact, a lot of those immigrants would probably go to New France instead even if they don't speak french. After all, a lot of immigrants in the US did not speak english at first either. And that's without considering the damage Napoleon would do. So between stronger natives and french colonists on top of a weaker US, I don't think they expand west at all. They certainly would try to at some point. But they would fail, especially as their enemies take advantage of the Civil War. Also, no war of 1812 probably means Andrew Jackson isn't elected so Florida will remain in the hands of the natives for a while and military expansion is not an especially appealing prospect for the US without Jackson.
