The Holy Plague a French timeline

Chapter 1
On 1426 a new strain of Black Plague would happen in France which would last up to 1432, a new virulent strain of Black Death that would destroy the population of France which would be accompanied by the Anglo-Burgundian raids in the North including in Anjou both would kill men, women, although the young would survive they would not be enough to replenish the population of Northern France which would destroy the population of Northern France and due to this the match between Margaret of Scotland and Louis XI would not happen and instead he would gain Yolande of Anjou as the bride of the Dauphin and her younger sister Margaret would be the one who would marry the Count of Vaudemont, the two marriages were easily granted dispensation, due to the plague the son of Rene of Anjou, Marie de Bourbon the wife of John II of Lorraine and Anjou would suffer multiple miscarriages that would render her sterile and John II of Lorraine of Anjou which would cause Lorraine, Bar and Provence to pass to the French on the death of Rene I of Naples on 1490.

The Plague would also later destroy the strength of the Anglo-Burgundian alliance 1428 to 1436 (despite it surviving due to Anne of Burgundy having a male issue named Henry, Duke of Bedford b. 1428) which would cause the Dauphin to regain control of France which was accompanied by the victories of Joan of Arc but it was too late for the population of Northern France to completely recover and the his loyal supporters in France would resettle Paris and nearby areas changing the language of France completely into that of the Aquitainian language.

Due to the English and Burgundian troops being slaughtered away by the disease along with Joan of Arc’s victories the English would lose their holdings in Northern France and both the English and Burgundians.

Chapter 2
On 1438, the Lancastrians would lose all the land that they had with France with the exception of the Pale of Calais which they would have kept in the present and Gascony, Margaret of Scotland would be the bride that would be chosen as a cease fire bride for the King of England and the King of France as peace between the Lancastrians and the French would not happen until the marriages of their own children, the Burgundian marriages would continue.

Cecily Neville would fail to give her husband a surviving son causing the Yorkist claims to pass to the female line, in this case with Anne of York who married John, Duke of Bedford as the heir general due to Cecily Neville only giving birth to multiple daughters.

On 1465 a peace treaty was made, and John of Gascony would be the ruler of Gascony and Guyenne under France and that Jeanne of France would marry Edward, Prince of England.
