    Colonizing powers in a TL with a Plantagenet victory in the 100 years' war?

    In this TL, Angevin France-England may or may not colonize, and the Dutch would probably be too dominated by Spain or the Angevins to revolt, so who other than the Plantagenet Empire may colonize the New World?
  2. How long could England realistically hold Gascony?

    The English monarch held Aquitaine/Gascony for a surprisingly long amount of time after John Lackland supposedly lost all of the English crown's continental possessions (and to be fair he did lose most of them). Henry VI was the last nominal English ruler of Gascony before rule of the duchy was...

    I have been reading through Barbara Tuchman's A Distant Mirror and came across this passage which made me wonder about the marriage which is blocked. "Charles V had outmaneuvered the King of England to win for his brother Philip of Burgundy the same heiress that King Edward wanted for his son...
  7. AHC and WI: No (Unified) France

    With no PoDs prior to Henry V's victory at Agnicourt (1415), how could the king(s) of England have held onto as much of France as possible (ideally including Brittany, Normandy, and Aquitaine), at least until 1515? Obviously, this means the King of France is now far weaker than OTL; what are the...
