Louis X, Duke of Bavaria Landschut (1495-1545) was consideted as candidate for hand of Hedwig Jagiellon (born 1513), oldest daughter of king Sigismund I. IOTL negotiations were broken, because Louis wanted part of Masovia as Hedwig's dowry. Say in ATL his demands are more moderate and marriage is agreed in 1532. Louis and Hedwig have two surviving kids:
-Louis, born 1538
-Kunigunde, born 1541
What would be effect of Louis X (who never married IOTL) having legitimate kids and division of Bavaria continuing? Louis "younger" would be also obvious candidate for Polish throne after his childless uncle and could present claims to Hungarian throne due to his mother's Zapolya's blood. Position of House of Wittelsbach would rise signigicantly.
Also how would he deal with being ruler of both Landschut (less important but hereditary, unlike elective throne of Poland) and Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth? Swedish kings from House of Wittelsbach kept title of Palatine of Zweibrücken, but how their rights there looked in practice?
Also, what about marriages? If we use "butterfly net" both children of Louis X could marry Habsbourgs-Joanna of Austria for Louis and Charles of Styria for Kunigunde? Would they go for such double match?
