As a Military Historian I rely on a summary of the historical fact, I analyze and highlight the decisive factors, before simulating hypotheses what if…
hypotheses through a board game. In the simulation, all possibilities of the purpose of the study are completed, when the past of history is analyzed based on the theory of the present and projected for similar situations in the future. Since 2010 I have published the following series of simulations: I. Historical Simulation of the Wars of the First Empires; II. Historical Simulation of the Wars in Classical Greece; III. Historical Simulation of the Roman Wars; IV. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Medieval Era; V. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Modern Era (1453 to 1774); VI. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Age of Revolutions (1775 to 1860); VII. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Industrial Age (1861 to 1913); VIII. Historical Simulation of the First World War; IX. Historical Simulation of World War II; X. Historical Simulation of the Cold War (1917 to 1991); and XI. Historical Simulation of Contemporary Wars (1991 to ...). Keywords: History. Art of War. Science of War. War

HISTORICAL FACT
War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714)
Img 1: Europe before the war.
The War of the Spanish Succession, fought between 1701 and 1714, and triggered by the death in November 1700 of Charles II of Spain, was a conflict for control of the Spanish Empire between his heirs, Philip of Anjou – grandson of the French king Louis XIV – and Archduke Charles of Austria. The conflict drew in many European powers, including Spain, Austria, France, the Dutch Republic, Savoy, and Great Britain.

Although weakened by more than a century of continuous conflict, Spain remained a global power whose territories included the Spanish Netherlands, much of Italy, the Philippines, and much of the Americas, which meant that their acquisition by France or Austria potentially threatened the balance of power in Europe.
Img 2: Family tree of claimants to the throne.
Attempts by Louis XIV of France and William III of England to resolve the issue through diplomacy were rejected by the Spanish and Charles II named Louis' grandson Philip of Anjou as his heir. His proclamation as king of an undivided Spanish empire on November 16, 1700 led to war, with France and Spain on one side and a Grand Alliance on the other. The French maintained the advantage in the early stages, but were forced onto the defensive after 1706; however,

by 1710 the Allies were unable to make any significant progress, while Bourbon victories in Spain secured Philip's position as king. When Austrian Emperor Joseph I died in 1711, Archduke Charles succeeded his brother, and a new British government began peace negotiations. As only British subsidies kept their allies in the war, this resulted in the Utrecht peace treaties of 1713-15, followed by the 1714 treaties of Rastatt and Baden. Philip was confirmed as king of Spain in exchange for renouncing his or his descendants' right to inherit the French throne; the Spanish Empire remained largely intact, but ceded territories in Italy and the Low Countries to Savoy and Austria. Britain retained Gibraltar and Minorca, which it captured during the war, acquired significant commercial concessions in the Spanish Americas, and replaced the Dutch as the leading European maritime and commercial power. France withdrew support for the exiled Jacobites and recognized the Hanoverian as heirs to the British throne; securing a friendly Spain was a great achievement, but it left her financially exhausted. The decentralization of the Holy Roman Empire continued, with Prussia, Bavaria and Saxony increasingly acting as independent states. Combined with victories over the

Ottomans, this meant that Austria increasingly shifted its focus to southern Europe.

Battle of Malplaquet
The start of the campaign was delayed by the harsh winter of 1708/1709, which made gathering supplies difficult, combined with peace negotiations in The Hague. Although Louis XIV was willing to accept most of the terms offered, the demand that he provide troops to expel his own grandson, Philip V of Spain, was a humiliation to which he could not agree and negotiations broke down at the end of April. from 1709.

For both sides the strategy was dictated by these negotiations; the French state was bankrupt, lack of food or pay caused the garrisons of Tournai, Arras, St Omer, Valenciennes and Cambrai to mutiny. To
