Long live the White Rose! OR A Yorkist Victory

[Jack810]

Foreword:
I planned this timeline for this entire year, and now i'll make it public...
Here the major PoDs for this timeline:

• Yorkist victory at the Wars of the Roses
• Napoleonic Wars
• The World Wars
• The Cold War

I'll post regularly, so expect more updates!
Also shoutout to KitFisto1997 and his timeline 'Revolution!' for inspiring me to make this!
Parallels:

• The English Reformation still happens in this TL, although for less personal reasons.
• The Personal union between England and Scotland happens, although this time in reverse.
• The English Civil War happens and Cromwell becomes the ruler of England, later with the monarchy returning, much like in OTL.
• Of course, the UK is created in beginning of the 18th century.
• The American Revolution eventually also happens.

Is the Yorkist victory gonna be a Richard III survives Bosworth or Edward V attains majority and becomes king?

At first i had it be a Bosworth victory but now with some thinking, i decided it to be that Edward V becomes king.

Interesting what's the line of thinking for that traitor Cromwell succeeding or the war still happening?

The cause of this Civil War is very similar to the one in OTL.
A lot of the semi-fictional people in this TL will be very similar to real life people.

Well, at least it's not a 'Germany won the Second World War' timeline

Interesting under the House of York?

 

[BlueFlowwer]

If Edward becomes king are he still gonna marry Anne of Brittany? Because that has the potential of a shitstorm with France all of its own.

I'll think about that.

The House of York only ends at the year 1901.
(If that sounds familiar, then you found another parallel)

Interesting, a female descended line from there on in.

I could possibly later make a family tree.

Austro-Hungarian Empire

Capital: Vienna and Budapest
Languages: German, Hungarian and other minority languages
Government: Democratic Constitutional Monarchy

Just a little semi-infobox for a nation in my timeline.

 

[BlueFlowwer]

Does the Austro-Hungarian empire last longer than in otl? The democratic constititional monarchy sounds interesting

It still exists to this day in this timeline.

Sounds cool. Are you gonna make the spain-hapsburgs as otl in this scenario as well?
