List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

Why not have Germaine of Foix marry the surviving Prince of Asturias?
Getting Naples for Joanna would be easier than taking Navarre for Germaine. Plus Germaine’s brother is still alive and their rights on Navarre belong to him (and in truth are not so good and almost laughable if transferred to Germaine).
The right thing to do about Navarre is marrying Ferdinand VI to Madeleine of Navarre (five years older than him but with good chances to inheriting Navarre) instead of Isabella of Portugal.
Ferdinand and Madeleine’s son then can marry a daughter of John III of Portugal and Isabella of Spain
 
Charles the Bold has more children with Isabella de Bourbon. That is raw idea, help, suggestions and criticism welcomed.

Isabella of Bourbon (1434-1465) m. Charles (1433-1477) Duke of Burgundy

1) Mary (1457-1509) m. Nicholas (1448-1) Duke of Lorraine

2) Philip IV (1459-) Duke of Burgundy 1477, m. a) Anne of France (1461-1480) b) Elizabeth of England (1466-)

3) Isabella (1460-) m. George (1449-) Duke of Clarence

4) John (1462-1482)

5) Agnes (1464-) m. Francis II (1433-1488) Duke of Brittany

Some predictions: George Plantagenet is not traitor, Edward IV's sons are not killed (as his oldest daughter is already married before his death) and Nicholas of Anjou is not poisoned

Pretty interesting but I think who Anne of France will not be married in Burgundy and also the Clarence match for Isabella is pretty much without sense. Plus I see Nicholas of Anjou and Maximilian of Austria as the most likely matches for Mary and Isabella here as once he had a surviving son Charles the Bold will try harder to get his royal crown and marrying one of his daughters to Frederick‘s son (with a very big dowry) is part of the pact.

So it would be Isabella who'll be married to Francis of Brittany and Elizabeth of York would be Philip's first wife, perhaps Agnes would marry Bourbon duke.

No. Agnes match is fine... Elizabeth will be Philip’s first wife (likely the ATL English-Burgundian will include both the Charles/Margaret match and Philip’s engagement to Elizabeth). Isabella will marry Maximilian here with a very big dowry (and her father will receive a royal title, likely a new one of Burgundy or Netherlands, but a revival of the old one of Lotharingia, who Charles wanted is not impossible)...
 
Philip of Rouvres does not die in 1361, and consummates his marriage to Margaret of Flanders.

Something that's been percolating in my head for a day or two. Very rough, so suggestions welcome.

When Claude of France miscarries her first daughter and predeceases her father because of it, Francis I decides to salvage the English alliance by marrying Louis's beautiful young widow..


Francis I of France (1494-1547) m 1514 Claude of France (1499-1514) (a) m. 1516 Mary of England (1496 -1549) (b)

1b Francis, Dauphin of France (1517 -) m Anne of Brittany (1525 - ) [1]

2b Louise of France (1519-1521)

3b Marie of France (1520 - ) m. James V of Scotland

4b Henri, Duke of Orleans (1522 -1533)

5b Charlotte of France (1523 - 1529)

6b Charles, Duke of Valois (1524 -)

7b. Marguerite of France (1526 -)

8b Elisabeth of France (1528 -)

9b Edouard of France (b and d. 1528) [2]

[1] Only daughter and heiress of Renee of France and an as yet unnamed husband. Suggestions welcome.

[2] Yes, Elisabeth and Edouard are twins. Mary never has another child - twins at 32 does for her fertility - although it's her son Henry who dies in 1533 here, not Marie herself. She gets to be Dowager Queen of France twice over ITTL.

Hmm I have a feeling Renee may be considered for Francis first before perhaps marrying a cadet or the royal family?

I considered that, but she's too young for the elder Francis, being all of four when Claude dies and a touch old for the younger Francis, being seven years older than him. I know it's the same age gap with her daughter, but at least the gap is the right way round, with the bride younger than the groom.

Hmm perhaps a surviving Francis of Clermont son of the duke and duchess of bourbon? Could keep Charles duke of bourbon loyal?

Ooh, now there's a shout. He gets Brittany and then Francis's daughter gets to be Queen after that and Brittany is brought into the French sphere a generation later than OTL.
