The situation was broken, and the chaos expected by the outside world did not happen. The only ones really making a move to snatch colonies were England, France, and Austria.
It wasn't that other colonial empires didn't want to compete; it was mainly due to insufficient strength. It was good enough for them to hold onto their current territories; they simply didn't have the capacity to participate in the competition.
With fewer competitors, it was naturally a good thing. If it came to settling the issue through negotiations, probably even England, France, and Austria wouldn't be able to monopolize the benefits.
The seemingly absurd behavior of the London Government was actually deeply considered. Now, only the small nations suffered damages, and even if there were grievances, they could only be held in.
