You are the spanish King and return from captivity in 1814, how would you save the Empire?

Give all colonies significant autonomy
Yeah it worked well for the Brits
>a nightmare mode playthrough
Do I have my current knowledge or no?
Sure.
From mainland Spain it was hard, first to thing was to purge Freemasons in the army and then sending troops to help militias in the new world, just consider Bolivar needed to use british mercenaries and terror on population because he lacked of support from civilians.
But the first thing to do would be that, to purge all freemasons and kill them on the most sadistic way possible to terrify the rest, the Bourbouns were to chill and often pardoned treachery easely, a mistake that proved fatal both to themselves and to the empire..
Go there myself, conquer Haiti and use the population as forced labour to create a new capital city and Cannal in the Panama Isthmus, and rule from there.
Also send an army to retake La Plata.
Legalize interracial sex between Spanish females and non-white males. Invite all the leading Latin revolutionary leaders to Madrid for an all you can fuck feast where every single female is at their sexual service. Fast forward to the present day and all of Latin America is still Spanish.
> Legalize interracial sex between Spanish females and non-white males
Completely legal since the catholic kings. Isabel even encouraged it.
pretty this, rich POC often married poor yt women to increase their social status
Really? That's extremely hot. Where could a Mexican anon go to read more about this for, uh, "research purposes"
Only the native nobility
White boy cope
Increase rights for criollos. Many colonists were mad because they were greatly underpriviledged in comparison to the Spanish born peninsulars
It was too late since the king returned once the oversea provinces were already at war
Move the capital to Mexico.
Keep Spaniards in Spain happy by giving them large land grants in Argentina, Paraguay and Bolivia.
>Move the capital to Mexico.
Mexico wasn't a troublesome province tho, all independentist movements started ironically in Argentina and Venezuela/Colombia.
Fill all the brown territory with white people, you really think tribalistic indios give one fuck about an inbred european king 1000kms away?
who do you think fought for the crown? I´ll tell you: indios. They loved their king.
it depened tho, independentists in Venezuela leaded a brutal ethnic cleansing against spaniards from any social stratus as part of terror campiagn against civilians.
Well in Bolivia the presidents had to show the indians fake letters from the king authorizing him to rule
That was the mixed race and black population, not Indios. Straight Indians were royalists.
*They loved fighting for fun
That's actually realistic, at the time the non-enslave non-peninsulares population of the empire barely excided the peninsulares.
Kill my brother Charles and commit suicide.
Make a treaty with france britain that colonial powers support each other against rebellious colonies.
Then i move in with them and dismantle the usa.
