AHC Let Rakoczi Ferenc's bloodline marry into the European royalty

I was just wondering if this were at all possible? I know Rakoczi's uncle married a daughter of Frederick V of the Palatinate (but the marriage was childless), and Rakoczi himself married a princess of Hesse-Wanfried. He had two sons - Joszef (born 1700) and Gyorgy (born 1701), as well as a daughter Sarolta (born in 1706).
Could they maybe bring new blood to Europe? Or would they be regarded as too parvenu?
 
No. Rakoczi Ferenc was a usurper who was unsuccessful. Even if he managed to secure Hungary/Transylvania independence, then he would just be a successful usurper. No ruing Dynasty will want to marry into that line because of this, not to mention the presumed pressure the Habsburg Court will put on the various European nations not to marry into that bloodline. It's just like the Bonapartes. No one wanted to marry into that family but Napoleon was just a lot more successful then Ferenc.

Louis XV married the daughter of a failed pretender to an elective kingdom.
 
At very least they should be able to marry into their mother's relatives - the Hesse-Rheinfels or any one of their extended cousinage of lowly German princelings. Considering Sobieskas became Queens of France and (de jure) England and a lowly princess of Anhalt-Zerbst became Russian Czarina, there's no major impediment to his children marrying well. I would imagine both his maternal and paternal lineages held rank equivalent to that of Imperial princes, hence him being able to marry a German princess (noting German obsession with equal marriages).
 
I think I read that Peter the Great offered Rakoczi the throne of Poland, would it be possible if we were to have a more successful independence war, Rakoczi could nd up as king of Hungary AND PLC, plus prince of Transylvania?
Also, to embroider on that idea a bit, if we allow one of Peter's sons with Catherine I (Pyotr Petrovich or Pavel Petrovich) who weRe born and died before their mom and dad's official marriage, to survive, could one marry Rakoczi's daughter?
 
Was the uncle a Protestant?

If so, they could be nephews or cousins of a King of Britain (Sophia was the youngest child of EoB) which would certainly enable them to marry well.
 
Like I said, his uncle Zsigmond (Sigmunt/Sigismund) who married Henriette von der Pfalz, died without children - at least none of the sources I've seen mention there being any issue from the marriage. But the challenge is for Ferenc's three children, not his cousins.
