This is a little bit earlier than I usually focus, so don’t hesitate educate me. So, what if Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine had a really happy marriage? What if their children didn’t fight Henry II or each other? What kind of effect would Eleanor have on court life since she won’t spend so...

Considering that that she was the daughter and only child of Lionel Plantagenet, Duke of Clarance and that her marriage with Edmund Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March was the catalyst that'll spark the War of the Roses a century later. Not to mentioned that Richard Plantagenet, 3rd Duke of York made...

So, John Holland, 2nd Duke of Exeter, had several marriages. What if he manages to produce a son with his 2nd wife Beatrice of Portugal? What relationship could he have with his brother Henry, future Earl of Huntingdon (& Ivry) and 3rd Duke of Exeter? How does this impact the reign of Henry VI...

So let's say the Plantagenets are successful enough to maintain their control of northern France but that they can't gain the south, and accordingly the Valois can't gain the north. Assuming this becomes a long-term affair, how are the rival kingdoms referred to? Will the titles King and/or...

Hello everyone. So, Richard of Cornwall, son of King John of England and brother of Henry III, was elected King of Germany in 1257, and formally held that title until his death in 1272. However, he was never crowned Holy Roman Emperor by the Pope, and his kingship over Germany was contested by...
