What if the british had not suffered or treated better the outbreak of scurvy before the Battle of Cartagena De Indias (1741) that led to them being defeated by a vastly outnumbered spanish colonial force?
From what i remember, the british aims in the war were capturing the ports of:
-Havana (Cuba)
-Cartagena de Indias (Colombia)
-Veracruz (Mexico)
-Portobelo (Panama)
Control of these ports would give the british quite a source of revenue, like Hong Kong times four.
I wonder... what would be the effects of this on spanish America? Depending on if the colonies remain in spanish control or if they choose to become independent later.
