I'll provide a list of PoDs based on OTL proposals, quoted from L. Carl Brown's "Middle East Politics: Old Rules, Dangerous Game"
1781-1782 Catherine’s approach to Austria, proposing an overall partition and a reconstituted Greek Empire ruled from Constantinople by her grandson. (my note: what was Austria going to get?)
1799-1801 Tsar Paul’s overtures to France
(my note: what was France going to get?)
1806 Russian suggestion that Britain take Egypt while Russia would get the prncipalities of Moldavia and Wallachia
(my note: imagine the 19th century if those takeovers were confirmed by this TL's equivalent of the Congress of Vienna. And before we get to that, does this agreement make Tilsit impossible? Or change the war of 1812 in Russia?)
1807 Talks for a general Ottoman dismemberment between Napoleon and Tsar Alexander at the time of the Tilsit negotiations
1829-1830 French Premier Polignac’s ambitious plan for a general realignment of the boundaries of Euope (a veritable “waltz of territories” as one cynic put it) coupled with partition of the Ottoman Empire.
1876 Bismarck’s plan to settle European disputes by way of Ottomam partition
(my note: who was supposed to get what?)
1895-1896 The Salisbury partition initiatives with Germany
