List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

Either that or an english match make sense to me
If Catherine of Aragon goes as she goes and Henry remarries to Anne Boleyn or some other lady. Ferdinand might be more supportive in his aunt, but since he does not have the empire, and thus no reason to involve himself with Milan, no beef with France.
 
Mary Tudor is born a prince and Catherine's last pregnancy yielded a living son in 1518.

Henry VIII of England b 1491 d 1545 m a) Catherine of Aragon b 1485 d 1535, b) Marie of Bourbon b 1515 d 1544
Issue:

-Edward VI of England b 1516 m Isabella of Austria b 1520*
-Henry, Duke of York b 1518 m Katherine Willoughby b 1519

-Catherine Tudor b 1537
-Elizabeth Tudor b 1540
-Mary Tudor b 1542


*Without having to wait for Mary to grow up, Charles marries Isabella of Portugal in 1519 and they have six living children, Isabella, Philip, Juan, Maria, Juana and Ferdinand.
Modifying this idea.

Very doubtful match and timing. The fifth daughter of an upstart ruler for the King of England? Sweden has also just had a coup d'etat, and ended a costly war with nothing to show for it, it's hardly a tempting situation to get involved in.

2) Jane, Princess of England (1574-1645) m. 1595 Christian IV, King of Denmark and Norway (1577-1648)​
No way Christian goes for a Swedish-aligned English bride, unless there are major diversions from OTL creating a Swedish-Danish alliance before the entry into the 30YW.

1) Elizabeth, Princess of Sweden (1596-1660)​
2) Christian V, King of Denmark and Norway (1598-1653)​
3) Frederick III, King of Denmark and Norway (1600-1660)​
4) Sophie, Princess of Sweden (1601-1659)​
5) Jane, Princess of Sweden (1603-1673)​
6) Henry, Prince of Sweden (1605-1669)​
Why are all Christian’s daughters becoming Princesses of Sweden, I'm guessing a typo?

This constant Renaissance Era posting is gonna drive me insane, so I decided to make a quick family tree for if Taira no Shigemori survived and the Taira clan ended up winning the Genpei War.

Taira no Shigemori, Shikken (1138-1206)
w. Bomonden

1. Taira no Kuremori, Shikken (1159-1221)

w. Fujiwara Chikamori no Musume [1]

2. Taira no Sukemori, Rensho (1161-1215)

w. Fujiwara no Keiko

3. Taira no Kiyotsune (1163-1196)
4. Taira no Arimori (1164-1201)
5. Taira no Moromori (1167-1198)
6. Taira no Tadafusa (1168-1225)

w. Unknown

7. Taira no Munezane (1168-1185)

[1] Means “daughter of Fujiwara Chikamori”, as her real name is unknown


Could use some help on finding proper titles and positions for Shigemori's other sons though

ITTL Charles went to England to ask for Mary's hand and she fell head over heels in love and accepted, and Philip II was unavailable because Maria Manuela survived childbirth.

Katherine would NEVER get the Netherlands as here Philip would most likely have more than one child by Maria Manuela (or would remarry to Maria of Viseu and have more children by her) and that children would be also ahead of Charles in the Portuguese‘s succession...

If someone is wondering Mary of Burgundy do not die here
 
I think Maria Manuela mantained her sucession rights when she married Philip, so her spanish children would have a right to inherit before Charles in this scenario.
 
Charles as the son of Manuel I while Philip is just grandson - and Philip is ahead?
Maria Manuela, being daughter of John III, and her children by Philip would be ahead of Charles, who is simply John’s half-brother (and Charles being still unmarried in the 1550s is pretty ridiculous).
 
Maria Manuela, being daughter of John III, and her children by Philip would be ahead of Charles, who is simply John’s half-brother (and Charles being still unmarried in the 1550s is pretty ridiculous).
Maria gave up her succession rights, didn't she? And John had no other surviving descendant besides Sebastian who died childless. (Mary isn't Charles' first wife - I just don't know who the first would be)
