An idea for my sideline TL project dealing with PoD of Margot Valois dying in 1577 in her Netherlands adventure, and Henry of Navarre remarrying.
The TL involves Mathias I marrying to a different lady than OTL, and having a son (called preliminary Andreas). If Mathias has 9-years old son before he kicks the bucket, would said son have priority over OTL Ferdinand II in Imperial elections?
And will no ultra-Catholic reign of Ferdinand II prevent 30 years old war as we know it?
