WI: Peter of Castile wins the Castilian Civil War with Henry of Trastamara?

Pretty much as the tin says, what if Peter of Castile wins the Castilian Civil War instead of Henry of Trastamara?

Obviously this means the House of Trastamara doesn’t become the rulers of the Iberian nation’s and that the House of Ivrea remains in power for now-Peter only had two daughters, though.

Does Castile continue to be pro-Jewry? Peter had pro-Jewish policies that the Trastamara reversed.

What about relations with Aragon? Portugal?
 
1. Castile would have enter the 100 years war in England's side and not in France. The Castillian fleet was the one who crippled the English navy in OTL
2. The relationship with the jews was not dynastic but personal. Some Trastamara rulers like Henry the IV were as pro jewish as you get
3. The Ivreas were closer to the Portuguese to the Aragonese so you might as well eliminate the dynastic union between Castile and Aragon
Basically:
A higher chance of England winning the 100yw,a weaker Castillian nobility,colder relationships between Castile and Aragon,god knows who becomes the king of Aragon after Caspe and a closer relationship with Portugal
 
Considering the Compromise of Caspe occurred not too long into the future after the Castilian Civil War (about 40 years at that), it is also possible that due to butterflies, we could still have a Barcelonan monarch continue to rule Aragon well past 1410.

To put into perspective, between 1369 and 1410, and discounting the at the time monarch (Peter IV) you had his sons and successors John I and Martin. The former had 5 potential sons who died shortly after birth, while the latter had 3 sons, two dying before birth, and the third being Martin the Younger (and the last independent King of Sicily) who died literally ten months before his father, leading to the Compromise. Even if you do count Peter IV, that would also open up two more sons from his final marriage (which would occur after the PoD so take that with a grain of salt.)

If you absolutely have to have the compromise though, the best likely candidate in that case would be the Count of Urgell, though the option of the Duke of Gandia/Count of Ribagorza is still there.

And Enrique's been painted black because of his pro-Jewish stance, particularly by Torquemada to his queen (Isabel), since he basically cited that Enrique's woes regarding children/wives was due to him not being a good Catholic Christian.

That said, I for one, am very interested in seeing the development of Iberia with a surviving house of Ivrea (main line, not bastard Trastamara), house of Barcelona and house of Burgundy (in Portugal, though that's not a must, more just no King Manuel and the Aviz kings who followed him that were essentially lackeys to the king of Spain)

Enrique is painted bad because he was a weak and submisive ruler that sold the crown to a bunch of nobles and the pope. Still Enrique is a prove that not all Trastamara were anti-jewish. Not even Isabel had a hatred towards jews and defended them multiple times
 
England winning the Hundred Years War due to Castilian help would be a hell of a butterfly
It is a really tough ATL. Peter basically conquered all of Aragon in the war of the 2 Peters and if it wasn't for him losing you might as well let a wank Castile in the XIV with an ultra wank England. I would work on it if I wasn't busy on my own TL...

I would do it but I’m attempting my own Castile inherits Aquitaine timeline at the moment
 
Hello,what will hapen with Granada will it be earlier or later them 1492 become part of an Christian kingdom?any suggestions?
Peter's best friend was the emir of Granada and he even helped built part of la Alhambra (while the emir sent artisians for rebuilding the alcazar in Seville). But predicting what would happen with his succesors is a mistery. Also Peter's temper was very volatile so he might as well get angry with the emir of Granada and just kill him
 
Well, to his supporters, he was Peter the Just, so maybe that one?
Peter was pretty brutal. He was planning on executing 65% of the Castillian nobility at some point. It wouldn't surprise me if he won the war he would have executed a lot of people and popularly be known as the cruel

On the bright side, he’d centralize authority in Spain earlier. But yeah that’s a bad way to go about doing that
