I know this question has been asked before, but I want to look a particular consequence of this event occuring.

If Ladislaus the Posthomous lives, defeats the rebellion in Hungary and defends Hungary against the Ottomans he will obvisouly be in a very powerful position. As he was arranging to marry Princess Magdalena of France he would obvisouly have strong ties with France.

What would the long term relationship be like between the Leopoldian and Albertian habsburgs?

My understanding is at the time the Leopoldian and Albertian Habsburgs were very hostile towards each other. Frederick III supposedly did not treat Ladislaus well at all.

Is it possible that if the Albertian Habsburgs survive, in the upcoming Italian wars the Albertian Habsburgs ally with the French while the Leopoldian Habsburgs ally with the Iberian Kingdoms?

Lets say Maxmillian is still crowned Holy Roman Emperor and still marries Mary of Burgundy.

Would this affect the outcome of the Italian Wars, or would the Albertian Habsburgs be too busy fighting the Ottomans to play any significant role?

Also could you get the impossible situation where the Ottomans ally with the Leopoldian Habsburgs?
I seriously doubt that this would happen.
