Vladislaus II had a stroke in 1504 IOTL. Now what if that stroke took his life? He only had a daughter, Anne at that point, his OTL son, the future Louis II was born only in 1506. What would happen to Hungary? According to the Treaty of Pozsony(Pressburg) of 1491, the Habsburgs had a clear claim on the throne, but the Polish-Lithuanian Jagiellons might try something as well. It's also not clear which Habsburg would the throne be claimed for.

Another important aspect is that of the Hungarian nobility's. Who would they support? Or rather, who would support who? Interesting thing to note, that Matthias Corvinus' bastard son, John Corvinus is still alive at this point. Could he attempt to gain the throne? Or if not, who would he support?
