What if Philip II somehow died in 1555 after Mary I had a daughter, Don Carlos would inherit Spain and marry Elizabeth de Valois? How could these two events affect history?

Their Majesties Queen Mary and King Jure Uxoris George in 1533 August 1528: Jane Boleyn succumbs to the sweating sickness, leaving her husband George Boleyn a widower August 1529: Thomas Boleyn, faced with the possibility of his daughter becoming Queen, decides that he wants to ensure that...

This is a bit of a long winded one, but the idea came to me and I think it’s a really interesting one, so here we go: In otl, Philip of Bavaria, Duke of Palatine-Neuberg, tried to win Mary’s hand in marriage for some time, though he ultimately failed due to Mary’s reluctance and later Henry’s...

This post has a similar premise to another post of mine from a few months ago, during the marriage of Catherine of Aragon and Henry VIII, Catherine ended up becoming pregnant six times, of which four resulted in stillbirths, one in 1511 that produced a baby named Henrique who lived less than 2...

On 1559, Mary I, would recover from her Phantom Pregnancy and her ailments and live another year and live until the end of 1560 wherein she would die. The Peace of Cateau Cambresis would include marrying Elizabeth of France to Charles, Prince of Asturias(Don Carlos), and Margaret of France to...

During the marriage of Catherine of Aragon and Henry VIII, Catherine ended up becoming pregnant six times of which four resulted in stillbirths, one in 1511 that produced a baby named Henry who lived less than 2 months and one that produced the future Queen Mary I. However, what would happen if...

September 1533: Queen Anne Boleyn gives birth to twin children, a boy and a girl. The children are christened Henry and Elizabeth in a grand ceremony in front of many of Henry VIII’s vassals. Henry VIII also announced he has negotiated an alliance with the French. This greatly pleases Queen...

Catherine of Aragon had 6 confirmed pregnancies, Anne Boleyn 4, Jane Seymour 1 and Bessie Blount had one son by Henry too. There are theories and some evidence than Jane made have had 1/2 miscarriages, and Katheryn Howard may also have suffered 1. A possible number of Henry’s children is as...

In 1528, Catherine of Aragon, the Queen of England had died and Henry VIII was considering an annulment to the pope so that he can marry his own love, Anne Boleyn prior to her death, who he had already in his side and wanted to marry after his own annulment. Catherine of Aragon died in 1528 and...

Henry, the only son of Henry VIII and his first wife Katherine of Aragon, who was born in 1516 and is the apple of his parents' eyes. He is devoutly Catholic, and a hot ticket in the European marriage market, though was never married off for some reason or another. However, when his parents fall...

IOTL she has one daughter, Mary, who lives to adulthood. What if Mary was born a boy? Personality is the same, still a devout Catholic with great courage and musical talent. Just the gender changes. Now Henry has no excuse to divorce Katherine, and Anne cannot openly discuss having male!Mary (we...

inspired by: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/the-children-of-camelot.506739/ "In the last week of April 1555, Elizabeth was released from house arrest and called to court as a witness of the birth, which was expected imminently. Many physicians tended to the queen, and the king...

What if Henry VIII's 1536 jousting accident kills him, and Mary becomes queen almost two decades earlier than IOTL? I assume England would stay a Catholic country ITTL. Who could be Mary's husband, and what could happen to Ireland if both countries are Catholic? What about Scotland, would the...

Might make this a full TL. Not sure yet. Here is what I am wondering. Let's say that Henry dies and Anne carries her son to term. What happens? Would the people pick Mary when there is chance for a male heir? I know Norfolk and his ilk would probably not turn on Anne when there is a chance...

y'all know what this is about aka the Mary becomes queen in 1536 TL ___________________ Equal and Indivisible - A Tudor Timeline Sketch of the Lady Mary, daughter of King Henry, done by Hans Holbein in 1536 “No one could have disproved that this august Lady was the daughter of Kings.” –...

The old menace is haunting me again, and by the old menace, I mean that one line in Wolf Hall where after the disastrous 1536 joust and everyone thinks Henry’s dead from falling off his horse, Cromwell immediately sent for Fitzwilliam to fetch Mary because, in his own words, he “cannot hold the...

After a short courtship, King Henry announces that his daughter Lady Mary's engagement to Philip, Duke of Palatinate-Neuburg. Philip and Mary marry in early March in a small ceremony attended by the royal family and a few favored courtiers. Many express their displeasure at the match, chief...

So, this happened instead of work: “By midsummer, the midwife was certain, Queen Anne was carrying more than one babe. She informed the Royal Couple to expect twins, though private records indicate she believed more may be possible. Due to the increased risk of multiple babes, Queen Anne...

So, what if Lizzie had died - I don't think Mary would've executed her half-sister (à la Jane Grey), but there are a bunch of other ways that Lizzie could've died (and those are just genuinely natural causes) - between 1553 and 1558. (And this is assuming that Mary manages no child as OTL), who...
