I realize I probably got the title wrong but I 'm tired so please forgive me.
Anyway the idea is this. WI Mary I of England has a child with Philip II of Spain? Would there be force Catholicism on the English? Would the English rebel and so a Spanish Armada would be needed to sort them out? I personally believe that the crowns of England and Spain would unite, though not politically for a while. And also there would be big rebellions which the Spanish and English Catholics would have to put out.
The next idea is that, while Mary I of England has a child with Philip, WI Mary I of Scotland has a child with Francis II of France? Could this also lead to a union of the crowns of France and Scotland after Mary's death? Obviously she wouldn't run to Elizabeth now if the timeline plays out with the death of her next husband, maybe Mary of England would actually take her in?
Just two small ideas I had today. Discuss please
EDIT: Sorry, I accidentally put Philip not Francis II of France I meant Mary I of Scotland and Francis II of France have a child.
