I am fascinated by the impact that a closer link with Slavic and Magyar culture might have on the Italian Renaissance: "eastern" costumes might even become fashionable for a bit and this might reflect itself in visual arts. Renaissance culture spread to Hungary under Matthias Hunyadi/Corvinus iotl, so things won't change that much, and I doubt that the otl germania influence can completely be substituted by Italian influence (I might be wrong, but there were already sizeable saxon and other German communities in Transilvania and other parts of the Kingdom at that point, right?), but little italian communities in Buda or Knin would be a quite interesting development...
Militarily, Magyar light cavalry could be used to great effect in Italy in tge kind of "guerrilla" actions whose devastating effects on more cumbersome renaissance armies Giovanni de Medici would show a bit later in otl with his Bande Nere (although those were mostly made up of arquebusiers and mostly on foot).
If only there was a way to peacefully bring Venice to an alliance with this "trans-adriatic union"!
