Walking on the Silver Line: A Valois-Bourgogne TL

[Liminia1]

Here's the English chapter for Burgundy. I'm not going too much into detail about the war of the roses, it's pretty much OTL except Burgundy does better in the war against France on the other side of the Channel. I'll see y'all in the glorious Holy Roman Empire. FYI, Saint-Pol is now annexed by Burgundy.

I'd be careful if I were you.

I'm sorry Elia I can not have an imperial-burgundian alliance, it's just not diplomatically sound or feasible at this point, but Maximilian won't be in this story until 1479ish

He's not fun. He's a complete joke.

 

[Liminia1]

He's not fun. He's a complete joke.

And yet he still has his part in Burgundy's story and importantly Charles' story

I actually got a new idea, Isabella will marry Maximilian you will have your Burgundian - imperial alliance, Isabella will play kinda like a Marie.

Who's Isabella?

 

[Liminia1]

Who's Isabella?

Philip's little sister, since Maximilian married Bianca Maria who was born in 1472, it'll work

I'm not making Max marry Bianca tho. I'm making him marry Isabella, although he is going to have to fight Charles VIII for that.

Easy, just make Isabella the same age as Max so Charles VIII can't marry her.

Now where's the fun in that? + how is he going to write his poems if he didn't fight for her?

Oh, Louis XI can still try to bully Charles the Bold into making Isabella/Charles a thing. But his plans blow up in his face when Max marries Isabella.
