The three branches of the Habsburg

[isabella]

What if Charles V married Mary Tudor (the elder) in 1515 and as consequence the Habsburg would be divided in three branches instead of the OTL two?

What about Ferdinand?

 

[isabella]

What about Ferdinand?

I have no tree for him or Catalina as they are not involved in my planning of this thread, still Catalina will marry as OTL, likely with the OTL luck while Ferdinand will become King of Castile and Aragon marrying Isabella of Portugal, with at least a surviving son

Oh, I see.

Oh, I see.

If you see on the thread Charles V’s heirs are only two branches so a third one must exist somewhere with Ferdinand as progenitor (I really must work on the Iberian side of the scenario)

Shame Mary died so soon, but at least she gave the Habsburg Austrian branch much needed frsh blood in Philip I.

Austrian Habsburgs have no need of fresh blood at this point as no Habsburg has married close relatives until that moment (and they had only Joanna’s blood, who was not too damaged, with inbreeding problems).
