Constantine was co-emperor to Basil from 6 January 868 to his death. Constantine was betrothed to Ermengarde de Provence, daughter of Holy Roman Emperor Louis II and Engelberga in 869. The marrital contract was broken in 871 when relations between Basil and Louis broke down.
In OTL Caesar Constantine was killed in 879 in a hunting accident.. Leo his brother (presumed to be his half-brother since even Basil I had doubts about him) was accused for the accident... Ironically Basil I died in a hunting accident too 7 years later and rumours about Leo's involvement with his death began circulating....
WI Constantine didnt died as in OTL and succeded his father as Emperor Constantine VII? How is that changing History? Any thoughts? Constantine was Basil's favourite son since he wasnt doubting for his paternity... Discuss...
