You wake up, the year and date is 28th June 1519, you are Charles V.

Renunce the title so that Francois can get it and rebuild Charlemagne's empire.
Let him take Italy too.
In return ask for his support in uniting Iberia and reconquisting north africa, and create a single empire over the americas.

c.u.c.k. : the post
declare my power over the pope and take rome.

Kill the fucking french faggot once I have him in Valencia. Be remembered as Charles the Mad or something like that, but prevent the french from starting four fucking wars and allying the french. Revoke all the titles from the defated protestant nobles, tolerance clearly didn't work. Once I die, if I have to separate my lands, give the burgundian heritage to the Austrian branch as they will clearly have an easier time controlling it.

>and allying the french
I meant the muslims, of course.

Give freedom of religion to the Protestant heretics and try to appease them.
Kill King Francis in 1525. This means the Kingdom will be inherited by his 8 years old son.
Then, decentralize France. Help French dukes and counts get more independence from the King.
Call for a Crusade against the Ottomans to appease the Pope.
>Kill Francis in 1525.
>Make the pope a patriarch under my rule.

I would think that being a murderer would undermine your power.
And there's not duke and count of note in france at that time, except for charles de bourbon. And after that guy's betrayal in 1523, all of the country belongs to the king directly.
Besides that, I don't think french nobility would go along with you. They did have some principles.
I ask the Portuguese infanta if she's a reliquary
>>484851
Not fuck my cousins.

>freedom of religion
Enjoy Spain revolting
Embezzel everything and run.
>>484851
Immediately focus on getting a harem of extremely fat mistresses.
You are now aware that Charles V Holy Roman Emperor, and Charlemagne, were the same person.
