AHC/WI: A Mongolian European royal house/dynasty

I don't see that happening Simeon was only a candidate because he was a former Tsar. He was only a puppet Tsar placed by Ivan the Terrible so he could return and govern as he pleased, as he only reigned for one year. Chances are he would be blinded like in OTL and sent off to a monastery.

He was also related to an empress, so his claim was at least as good as the claim of Tsar Boris Godunov (and of future Tsar Michael Romanov). And it seems that even Simeon's blinding didn't completely put an end to intrigues, as some anti-Godunov boyars still put him up as a candidate after that.
