What if, instead of Phillip VI of France and his brother Charles of Alençon, Charles of Valois had only daughters? Would Edward III of England then become King of France? Would somebody with an even more distant claim appear out of he woodwork? Would Odo of Burgundy use his wife's status as Phillip V's grandson to push forward his son's claim to the throne? Could we see a succession war that is Burgundy vs Plantagenet instead of Plantagenet vs Valois?
