Henry II Dies In 1100

The POD for this history is the death of Henry II of England almost immediately after his coronation. The death of the last son of William the Conqueror in 1134 opens the door for the Counts of Champagne and the Scottish House of Canmore to lay claim to the throne of England. A succession crisis in 1201 allows the House of Canmore to expand from Northumbria over all England for almost a century. The Anglo-Scottish succession crisis of 1290 allows the Franco-Navarrese line to conquer England. Scotland never recovers England. In 1328, France and Navarre-England part ways until 1589. The last monarchs of Navarre and England are Joan III of Navarre and England, a staunch Calvinist. and Henry III of Navarre and VII of England, better known as Henry IV of France, who said "Paris is worth a Mass".
