Forum:Otto von Habsburg

How would Europe have developed had, on his father KuK Karl's death, the young Otto Habsburg had been offered the throne of a central-European monarchy? Given that he was a child those making the offer might have seen the possibility of manipulating him to their ends. In OTL he became a force for the European community ideal (and contributed to the inclusion of former communist Eastern Europe into the EU) - so he might well have taken a similar course of action had he been monarch.
