  1. Edward II seperates Gascony

    Gascony proved to be a major foreign policy millstone for all the Plantagenet Kings, Edward II of all of them seemed to have the least interest in the duchy. Would it have been possible to renounce the duchy and pass it on to his brother Thomas of Brotherton? Could have saved valuable resources...
  2. A daughter for Henry VI TL

  7. If William IV had a son to succeed him

    If William IV had a son to succeed him in 1837 on the British throne, kept Britain and Hanover united, how would this have affected future history? Victoria wouldn't be Queen, so the son and potentially other children would have been avaliable for marriage alliances, who would they have married...
