Kinda funny that two of the People who turned their backs on Napoleon in OTL in the end are now utterly loyal to us. Just something I noticed.

Can the peace treaty be "Join us in beating up the Brits?"

Not likely to happen without a diplomatic genius.
Let's say in the peace treaty that we say we all become master of Europe then Britain

With Russia a light war reparations over the course of a few years. With Spain…how do they feel about recognizing Haiti as a state and handing over the Caribbean to Haiti?
[X]Make him an Aide De Camp: You are in desperate need of an aide. Perhaps he will see himself regain his honor from you.
[X]Towards Paris, and the Siege There: Napoleon has already laid Siege to Paris… with only 45,000 men, against 70,000… You are not going to allow him to kill himself because of his own overconfidence. (Will arrive on October 15th)
Yeah lets have him serve under us for a bit. Might do his mindset some good because it seems like he wasn't having the best time until Therese showed up.
And lets go to Paris to rest up, help Napoleon a bit because there must be some trouble even with him taking Paris and help calm down the people of Paris.

I don't know about Spain, but i kinda doubt Russia will accept that without more serious military victory, so the choice is do we want them and us to get serious, or not.
As for Spain, we can impose it, but getting it in effect with the Brits is another matter and it probably won't do us favor of we want them to stay friendly.

I think you meant Jeanne d'Arc ?
Well yes. But since Therese has hitched her flag to Napoleon's mast, we'll just have to keep a leash on him.
I think Spain solidifying their empire in the new world with military victory and sensible reforms is WAY more interesting.
What's Spain going to do with a mountain of gold when everything is still on fire?

Are you aware of the history of the Brazilian empire, and how Portugal's royal family briefly moved to Brazil and made Brazil the center of the empire?
Rather than El Dorado, it could be akin to that. With the sudden collapse of the homeland, the confused army receives some branch of the royal family of Spain, who promptly declare the colonial empire as Spain and gain the loyalty of at least some classes of the locals.

Well, We can always send Joseph to Spain... or Brian, and crown someone king.
Oh God a France that controls the Netherlands, Italy and possibly Spain? That would be a very scary Empire.

Hey not our fault that the British keep giving us more land because they are greedy.

Ironically...unlike OTL, that might even work.
After all, the King of Spain abandoned his People to their fate after declaring War against a foe he stood no Chance in defeating and is now partying in the Colonies. Clearly, he is unworthy of being their Leader.
Unlike OTL, we can potentially spin the Narrative of France rescuing the People of Spain from an incompetent and uncaring Royal Family FAR more convincingly here.
Also, if I may ask...did Kellermann and Barras survive?

Looks at notes: Yes they did, though Kellerman lost a few fingers.

When it says "pen" in an update as a writing implement, is it referring to a quill pen?
