What should my next timeline be?

[BlueFlowwer]

Might be a good thing.

 

[VVD0D95]

Yes, I think so.

This would make TTL Mary, queen of Scots a very, very different woman from OTL Mary, wouldn't it?

It would indeed, which may well be very interesting no?

 

[King of Danes]

It would definitely be better for Mary, but it will change many things. One major change could be her religion. If she was raised in Scotland she might be much more drawn to protestantism, which would radically change a lot.

Hmm, assuming Knox still takes hold, if James V lives longer, Knox may end up dead

 

[isabella]

Indeed, that's what I'm ruminating on. Debating on whether I should have James V survive for longer, and thus see Mary married somewhere elsewhere than France, or have her engaged to a son of the Duke of Albany rather than France.

With Albany having a son for Mary to marry or?

Careful with that. Scotland follow semi-Salic succession so if Albany had a son that son (Alexander/James/John?) would be King after James V in place of Mary

Indeed this is true, tho Mary would still be in line to englsnd, and he’ll that may make her more palatable to the English

Well she would still likely be Queen (Consort) of Scotland as is unlikely who Albany’s son (or grandson if the boy is born from his OTL wedding) can get a much better wedding

Indeed this is very true

 

[Kerney]

Voted, won't tell how.
For the one that speaks to you,
should be what's done now

 

[Bloodmage]

Wouldnt mind an Edward VI/Mary queen of Scots Treaty of Greenwich TL,Though I am not sure how viable it is

 

[King of Danes]

I don’t think that can happen since Mary is supposed to inherit the English throne

Well....they could marry and then Ed could die....

 

[isabella]

She can very well inherit it after Edward’s death and remarrying

 

[Kurt_Steiner]

She could marry Eddie, but they don't get too well each other and good old Bothwell happens to be at hand and then the proverbial matter hits the fan and the fun starts.

 

[VVD0D95]

For thr Mary one, who should she rule Scotland herself or be married to someone who does?

Either is good. Her NEVER being married to the French Dauphin would be great in making her recognized as heiress of England

Indeed this is true, having Francis die young could accomplish that

Not really. Oh, well at that point you need to prevent her journey in France from the beginning...

 

[VVD0D95]

Oh? ow would one prevent her marrying to France without Francis dying etc?

 

[King of Danes]

Maybe if the Scottish nobles would want to avoid having Scotland be a junior partner in a personal union with France? That would prevent her from being engaged to him to begin with
