As it says on the tin, Ferdinand VII has a son with one of his four wives. Obviously, the older the boy is on his accession the more things are likely to be different.

So, if we look at the obstetric history of his wives:

1) Maria Antonietta of Naples

Miscarriage (1804)
Miscarriage (1805)

2) Maria Isabel of Portugal

Maria Luisa Isabel (1817-1818)

3) Maria Josefa of Saxony

4) Maria Cristina of the Two Sicilies

Isabel II (1830-)
Luisa Maria (1832-)

If any of the girls are born as a surviving prince of the Asturias, what might the effects on Spain be without a series of Carlist Wars?
