Try this one...

The generally unrecognized factor in the Habsburg rise to power was Fugger bankers, especially Jakob Fugger. However, in this Q6 world, Jakob Fugger died young and the Welsers couldn't bridge the gaps. This lead to the House of Valois having a shot at the Imperial Throne.

By 1585, France, Spain, The Holy Roman Empire, and the vast majority of Spain's overseas empire, is ruled by the king of France. Henry III is that king. Read the article, the situation is less than ideal.

Centrum wants to hijack Elizabeth of England, wed her to Henry and have James of Scotland get the throne. Four-fifths of Europe would kill to stop that. Homeline just wants the France superstate to fall gently down and not take Europe's future with it. The Homeline French want Henry IV to inherit smoothly, which is not quiet as unpopular as Centrum's plan. The Swagmen want a major series of wars so they can loot freely.
