[[War of Anglian Succession (The Kalmar Union)|War of Anglian Succession]] - William II's sole heir, his sister Anna I, is unable to inherit Anglia's continental properties due to Salian law. Through mutual consent she acts as regent for Danish and [[Luxembourg (The Kalmar Union)|Luxembourgoise]] claimants in Anglia itself.
 +
William II spends the last years of his reign preparing the way for his sole heir, his sister Anna of Norfolk, to pass the throne on to a as yet unborn son. However at his death, she still does not have a son. Flemish lords argue that she is unable to inherit, or pass on, Anglia's continental properties due to Salian law. This unleashes the [[War of Anglian Succession (The Kalmar Union)|War of Anglian Succession]] as her cousins Eric IX of Denmark and Sigismund I of Luxembourg fight for the crown. Through mutual consent she acts as regent for the Danish claimants in Anglia itself.
