Possible or Plausible, I guess I should ask.
Between the "destruction" or perhaps dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire by Napoleon, but even after the defeat of Napoleon in 1815, could the Hapsburgs possibly retake or retrain control of Italy at all in some way.
I do assume that this would have to be foresaking control of Germany and even Hungary as well, unless you can somehow divide the Hapsburg domains up between various claims, but is there a way at all for Italy to be unified under their control into the 1800s and 1900s? There were lots of Unification wars during the 1860s, so is it possible they can influence control of Italy instead of the House of Savoy. You could maybe get Maximilian of Italy instead of Maximilian of Mexico?
