POOne son gets Spain and the other Napels, Sicily and Milan then?

Possibly if one's angling for a split between Carlos and Ferdinand
Ferdinand was loyal to his brother IOTL, why would he rebel against his uncle?Or perhaps Ferdinand tries to revolt against his uncle Franz and claim the title King of Romans from his cousin Maximilian!
Plot twist!
Or perhaps he's governour of Napels, Milan and Sicily. If Margaret of Austria dies as otl then Charles second son can perhaps inherit the low countries. Charles can spend a year or so in Burgundy if Franz has the empire. Isabella of Portugal was a capable regent and withouth her husbands long absence in Austria the burden on her is lighter.
Charles I of Spain b 1500 d 1547 m Isabella of Portugal b 1503 d 1545
Issue:
-Infanta Juana of Spain b 1522
-Juan III of Spain b 1525
-Infante Ferdinand b 1527 d 1530
-Infante Manuel b 1528
-Infanta Maria b 1530
-Infante Philip b 1532 d 1532
-Infanta Isabella b 1535 d 1536
Isabella insisted and it comes together nicely with both of Castile and Aragon.
I think a french princess would be better in this case. Make peace and since Isabella is still alive at that point it might go different. If Maria Manuela even exists in this TL.
Interesting what makes you say that?I actually killed Charles in 1547, so maybe not. Charles VIII's son in that case. I don't see the father living for longer than 1520.
Ah I see so no,living till he’s sixty like his old manOh, sorry you meant Charles VIII of France. Well, the Valois branch always seemed a bit fragile so I put Charles down to die in 1520 or so.
