Alright, so we’ve seen this before, right? The Byzantines hold out, or the IV Crusade never happens, or the Bulgarians crush the Latin Empire early on (and so the Byzantine Empire pretty much gets a Bulgarian dynasty), or the Christian powers destroy the Ottoman Empire early on, ext… Well, there are lots of ways, but what happens after that?
Mostly looking at the Balkans and Germany here. Seems like the Austrian Empire might not get a chance to form, if not for the Ottomans. Will there be a Hungarian Empire, like the Austrian Empire? Would the Poles and Germans not let that happen?
Yes, seen some TLs with this, but sometimes its glossed over, or is covered by the unlikely central focus of the TL, or the author just picks something. But what do you think is the most likely thing that could happen? Any Ideas?
