So Voltaire still has it right in this TL :P

As an alternate, could an HRE form in Italy from some divergence earlier? Say the Franks are able to conquer the entire peninsula? Probably impossible.

Is a Portuguese inclusion in Spain at all possible in any possible timeline?

Even in a more tolerant world? I guess, there'd still be prejudice and friction.
