But is it a way to limit it to Portugal so that the "Spanish Ulcer" doesn't develop? Having Napoleon leaving Ferdinand (since leaving Charles in wouldn't alter much in that sense) in the throne instead of putting Joseph in?

But what if, say, Simon Bolivar admires Napoleon even further and instead of despising his ideals and admiring the man (which IIRC was what he felt) he adopts his model and becomes a Napoleonic ally or somesuch, influencing Agustin Iturbide to follow in the same model?

Can Napoleon avoid warring with Russia despite the Continental System until peace is signed with Great Britain and Portugal? And if that isn't the case, what is the latest possible date Alexander will comply to the System? Or Paul surviving for ten more years and continuing an Indian campaign?
