Question

Which conflict in the 1700s changed the balance between of power in Europe and the Americas to favor England and Prussia

Answer 1

Two conflicts-the War of the Spanish Succession and the war in the Baltic-almost merged into a single pan-European war. Even though Russia and Prussia appeared on the international scene, the balance of power that emerged after the Thirty Years ' War was never broken. None of the great powers could achieve unconditional dominance over rivals.  

In the 18th century, France was weakened. Sweden, Spain, and Holland withdrew to the second roles. The strongest players looked England and the Austrian Empire. Prussia and Russia were gaining political weight.
