Talk:Treaties of Dresden (Du Gamla, Du Fria!)

That sounds a touch... harsh. War would not have gone on that long with such an alliance, not would it have been so harsh in the end.

What you also miss, however, is that Hanover for all practical purposes was part of Great Britain. Since 1714, it was entirely part of the realm in the person of the king, and since 1701 its ruler had been the heir to the British throne. Hanover being lost at all is just not realistic - with the stronger alliances of Sweden, they'd have stayed on that side of the fence.

Kind of ignores the constant switching of sides, too.
