So, the major POD here is twofold:
1) Henry VII of England, while living in exile in Brittany as earl of Richmond, marries Marie of Brittany, the widowed cousin of the Breton duke, Francis II. They have a son, Arthur, in 1481.
2) Henry and Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor still sign a treaty of friendship in 1493. But the alliance is sealed by the 1497 marriage of Arthur, Prince of Wales and Maximilian’s daughter Margaret of Austria, the scorned fiancee of Charles VIII of France.

[1] I can’t find sources on when Mary of Brittany’s OTL husband died so I’m just saying that he died in 1478/1479 and butterflying her four youngest OTL children.
[2] Son of King Christian II of Denmark and Catherine of Aragon. (I’ll get to this later lol)
[3] Named in honor of his godfather, father's friend, and uncle-by-marriage, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk.
Also, would anyone be interested in a thread on this???
