Alternate Possible Female Monarchs or Usurped Heiresses


Poland
OTL
Jadwiga of Anjou


Anna Jagiellonian


Possible other Queen Regnants in close proximity to succession/de jure successors

Elisabeth Richeza
I think she could lead Poland to be ruled by Habsburgs or a Polish-German Union, by the Premyslids or a continuation of the House of Piast, she married a Habsburg and a Premyslid, she did things that the Polish nobility prevented Jadwiga to do so.

Elisabeth of Pomerania
Her brother is more likely impotent or sterile, if her brother becomes King - she is the heiress once her brother dies since any of the issue or heir his wife could bear have a doubtful paternity (her namesakes Isabella of Castille and Elisabeth Farnese took advantage of their brother's lack of secure heir, due to his sterility/impotence), she could be the wife of Louis I of Hungary to secure his succession, her OTL husband Charles IV could use her or her brother as a pretext to start a war of succession.
