What a new timeline!?!? Well yes ! What about your timeline about King John I of France? Not dead,just on temporary hiatus. I still have ideas for it, but the TL was so big in terms of ideas and storyline, almost like a Druon's book that I decided to pause it. Then why another TL? I...

What if Leopold Clément of Lorraine, hereditary prince of Lorraine survived small pox and married Marie Theresa of Austria just like it was intended OTL. Will Charles VI still apply the rule "no renunciation to Lorraine, no archduchess". Apparently, Leopold was a tall and very intelligent young...

After watching the NHK drama "Yoshitsune" and playing Shogun 2 : "Rise of the Samurai", I wondered what could happen if Yoshitsune escaped/survived the battle of Korama River, since we only less than hundred men, I don't think he would be able to win against 500 Fujiwara men (here). Any ideas...

Hi guys, this question is of for my timeline, since I know that sooner or later, I will have to tackle the issue with that massive geopolitic entity. I read about it, but I have some questions for you : 1. What about the Imperial Elections before the Golden Bull ? What were the conditions ? I...

I was reading , yesterday,the excellent book of René Grousset "L'épopée des Croisades" and I was wondering, what changes could bring a failed assassination of Conrad of Montferrat. OTL, he was a powerful North Italian noblemen (although , he was more Occitan leaning) and was related to HRE...

Hello guys, for my timeline, the Reign of King John of France, I intend to have Enguerrand de Coucy meet Princess Margaret of Scotland (b.unknown - 1346/1347) , a daughter of Robert I of Scotland. I search over Wikipedia and the net and only found that she died around 1346/1347. Most of...

WI, the King Charles III of Navarre has a healthy surviving male heir (IOTL he had two sons who died very young). How could this affect the Iberian politics and maybe the HYW ?

Could Edgar gain or recover the throne of England ? In 1066, when his great-uncle Edward the Confessor died, Edgar was 15. Let's say Edward names his great-nephew before he died heir to throne. Yes there was his age, but there were precedents in Anglo-Saxon history : 1. Eadwig of...

The Reign of King John I of France After reading the book “The Accursed Kings’’ of Maurice Druon, I was quite inspired by the possibilities of alternate timelines that can be found in this book. One of them is the idea that King John I of France survives and with it perhaps the chances of...

What if King Louis V of France doesn't die in an hunting accident but rather live longer and thus not ending the Carolingian rule on France ?

Marie of Luxembourg fall off of her coach after a terrible accident while travelling to Avignon. She later gave birth to a stillborn boy what happens if there is no accident and she gives birth to a healthy boy and that Charles dies as in OTL ? Link...

It was an attempt by the Huguenots to create an independent republic the same way as the Dutch in the Spanish Netherlands. It was created in 1573 after the St-Barthélémy Massacre (1572) , after which the French protestants never trusted again the Valois. My question is could this state survive...

I recently read and watched the books and the miniseries "The Accursed Kings" and I was wondering if he could have been King of France in the midst of the HYW. After all, he was by his father (Phillipe III of Navarra) a direct descendant of St Louis and thus a member of the House of Évreux...
