    AHC : Wank The Taifa of Zaragoza

    What is the best POD to achieve a more powerful and long lasting Taifa of Zaragoza ? Avoiding the Almoravid in Iberia would probably be a good thing or at least having them accepts them as autonomous vassal but I would like to have Zaragoza weaken and stop the rise of Aragon early on . And how...

    The Inheritance of Spain

    A simple challenge. Take the inheritance of Spain after the death of Isabella I, you may keep any of her children alive, and kill anyone, just take the ascension in as many ways as possible.
  6. Could Aragon dominate the Mediterranean alone?

    If Spain was never formed and the catholic monarchs never married could Aragon dominate the Mediterranean alone? Or were castilian Manpower, dutch money, and peruvian gold the reason why the Catholics could break the Ottoman domination of the mediteranean sea? I'm assuming that this Aragon would...
  7. WI Fernando el Católico was King of Castile on his own right

    IOTL Ferdinand II of Aragon became King of Castile iure uxoris as husband of Isabel of Castile, but as descendant of Juan I of Castile he was himself high in succession line, just behind Isabel and their children. So lets say that following changes happen-la Beltraneja dies as kid, while Isabel...
  8. WI: Juan, Prince of Asturias lives, Philip the Fair dies

    The death of Juan of Castile in 1497 ruined the plans laid out by his parents and led to the unwanted rise to the Spanish crowns by the Habsburgs down the line. Let's suppose that Philip somehow dies in 1497 and Juan survives his illness, long enough at least to sire at least a son and a...
  9. No Fernando de Antequera

    Change is simple-Fernando de Antequera is never born (his parents have a girl instead in 1380). What are effects? In such case Catherine of Lancaster would not share regency with him and would be sole regent for John II, but biggest changes would happen in Aragon (assuming, that Martin I still...

    WI: Aragon and Navarre stay together?

    IOTL, the kingdoms of Aragon, Navarre, and the County of Barcelona were for a time united under a single monarch between the late 1050's and the death of the heirless Alfonso I ("the Battler") in 1134, after which Alfonso's own absurd will (which would have left the country to three Knightly...
  11. WI: Fernando II of Aragon Had Left Aragon, etc. to Ferdinand of Austria?

    As it says on the tin. Fernando II had an obvious preference for his namesake grandson. Even intending that the native-born Ferdinand succeed him instead of Karl V. So, what if he makes good on this decision? How can he make good this decision? And did he only intend Fernando to succeed him in...
  12. WI: Alfonso V of Aragon killed at Ponza in 1435

    Death of Aragonese king was not the most likely outcome of the battle, but we all know battle isn't safest event, so it obviously could happen. So what would be aftermath of Alfonso's death? IOTL after being captured and taken to Milan as prisoner he managed to convince Duke of Milan that it is...
  13. Battle of Toro WI: death of Ferdinand of Aragon

    Battle of Toro (4th March 1476) during War of Castilian Succession was military inconclusive, despite this Isabela and Ferdinand were able to portray battle as their victory. As result lots of supporters of Juana 'la Beltraneja' and her husband/uncle Alfonso decided to switch sides, not willing...
  14. Ferdinand of Antequera on Castilian throne

    POD is easy-Henry III of Castile dies in 1399, before his children were born. Thus his brother Ferdinand takes throne after him. What does it mean? -Catherine of Lancaster has nothing to do in Castile, is she going home? Would she remarry? -Compromise of Caspe-how would it look like? Chosing...
  15. Alfonso V of Aragon has legitimate issue

    King Alfonso V of Aragon had no children with his wife, Maria of Castile. Upon his death he was succeeded by younger brother in Aragon and by illegitimate son in Naples.

    DBWI: León joined Castille & Aragon

    How would Iberian history turn out if the Kingdom of León (plus Galicia) gets tied to Castille & Aragon (let's say the union with Aragon still pushed through) instead of remaining its own state?

    Hijo Catolico Points of Divergences “On Palencia on October 2, 1470, Isabella of Castile would give birth to a son, she would name as Alfonso, she would name after her own dead brother, the birth of a son would mean that Isabella of Castile would have a male heir on her own claims to Castile...
  19. DBWI: Castile and Aragon not equal partners in the Crown of Spain?

    So as we all know, the royal marriage of Queen Isabella I of Castile and King Ferdinand II of Aragon led to the unification of Spain. As one might expect, Castile and Aragon became relatively equal partners in the new realm. Aragon's Mediterranean holdings were counterbalanced by Castile's extra...
  20. Princess of Peace

    We have several TLs with surviving Miguel da Paz. I wonder what would happen if only child of Manuel of Portugal and Isabella of Castile is born as girl (propably also named Isabella)? First scenario (that one is easy): both daughter and mother survives, but Isabella and Manuel have no more...
