Map found on reddit

The map above shows which countries controlled what territories in North America in 1786.

With the French out of the picture after ceding their territories in North America to Great Britain and Spain in the Treaty of Paris 1763, following the end of the Seven Years War (aka French and Indian War), it was a four way race.

The old world powers of Spain and Great Britain still nominally controlled the most territory, but were facing the rising new world powers of the United States of America and the Vermont Republic.
