What if Henry V died in the noted battle in 1415, and the French prevailed? How this affects the course of the conflict is relevant, but I'm especially interested here in how this affects the struggle for the English crown, and subsequently England itself. At the time of our noted battle, Henry had three brothers, all unmarried, as well as two brothers in law, one of whom was King of Denmark and Sweden; and on top of that, the Lancaster line wasn't on the securest of footing prior to renewal of hostilities with France, meaning we could have another Plantagenet claimant, or several. Does this lead to an earlier or alternate War of the Roses? If so, how does this change things for the English state?
