I've recently became interested in the late Capetian dynasty and am surprised to find that no one has (apparently) asked this before. So I think we all know who Philippe IV 'le Bel' is, but for those who don't know, he was the father of the modern bureaucratic state, the man who restored royal finances, placed the Papacy itself as subordinate to France and the destroyer of the Templar Order. He was, unarguably, one of the greatest Capetian Kings of France and a true successor to Philippe August. So what if, instead of dying in a hunting accident in 1314, he lived for another ten years, to 1324 (BTW chose ten years as mid-fifties seemed to be the average life-span of the Capetians, but he could live longer if it seems reasonable)? Would the Flemish revolts be solved earlier? Would the Capetian line potentially survive? What would relations with England look like? How would an extra decade of le Bel's reign affect France and the rest of Europe?
