Question, how does Alphonse I take power? :confused:

My guess:

Theophilus I dies without any male heirs. Alphonse is among the closest relatives (nephew, married a daughter, something like that). he becomes a compromise king, as his Spanish blood pleases the hispanophiles, but he is politically associated (or controled by) the nationalists.

edit: or we could redo the timeline with descendents of Theophilus reigning, perhaps with Alphonsine pretenders being listed as well.
 
Well when Theo dies, it passes on to Alphonse, who is supported by the hispanophiles, and they have enough power to force his acension through.
