Following up from a previous thread that I'd posted here. Louis XIV and Maria Theresa of Spain had:

Louis, Le Grand Dauphin b. 1661 d. 1711

Anne Elisabeth of France b. 1662 d. 1662

Marie Anne of France b. 1664 d. 1664

Marie Therese of France b. 1667 d. 1672

Philippe Duke of Anjou b. 1668 d. 1671

Louis Francois b. 1672 d. 1672.

What I'm wondering is what happens if all of these kids survive? How does this change things in Europe? I imagine that Philippe would be named as Charles II of Spain's heir, and perhaps married to Maria Antonia if she has no surviving brothers. BUt what of the others?
