Ferdinand of Austria was the third son of Emperor Charles and his wife Isabella. Ferdinand of Austria was born in 1535 and died in 1538. Let us suppose that Ferdinand is a strong healthy child and does not die young. What would be the effects of Charles V having another adult son? What lands would Charles V bequeath to Ferdinand in TTL? I imagine that Charles would give Ferdinand the entire Burgundian inheritance in TTL. Would Charles create a kingdom for Ferdinand in TTL? Whom might Ferdinand marry in TTL (Elizabeth I of England?)? What would be the relationship between Philip and Ferdinand in TTL?
