After reading this blog-post about a monarch I previously knew rather little about - Pedro V, King of Portugal - I was wondering what the effects would've been if both he (and maybe his wife) had lived longer? Would or could Portugal develop in a different way to what it did? Or had the die already been cast on the future? And I wonder if it could mean that Portugal perhaps succeeds in her Pink Map endeavours (although that's far enough in the future to be significantly affected by butterflies).
