The question is simple: Marguerite d'Anjou was seen as a poor match for Henry VI, OTL. Not only was her dowry small, but the English had to pay Anjou a sum of money plus ensure that certain territories that England possessed in France, would pass to the Angevins. And the Anjous never left the French camp AFAIK. So, let's say Henry marries elsewhere (where? Isabelle d'Armagnac, dame des Quatres-Vallées or Leonor of Navarre are possibilities), because Marguerite's not available.
Why is Marguerite not available? Well, Friedrich of Austria, later Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich III, the so-called 'Stupor Mundi' expressed interest in marrying Marguerite (or an Angevin princess). For some reason - I must admit, I don't know much about the negotiations - the marriage never took place, and Marguerite ended up joining a list of she-wolf French consorts in England, with an *insane husband to boot.
So, here, Marguerite and Friedrich get married. How do things run from here? What were the obstacles to the wedding OTL, can they be overcome?
