PoD - Louis of Hungary has son.

1. Empire of Hungary-Poland-Croatia-Bohemia and other feudal lands or simply put Empire of Anjou. With Louis the Great having son, Poland crown never really left Hungary and gave dual country strong start to expand more. One of two Slavic Empires in the world, altough this one is not really fully Slavic, being ruled by Hungarised Elite. Still biggest part of their country is majority Slavic which resulted in Polish, Bohemian and Croatian having the same status as Hungarian. Other Slavic languages are respected as well. Overall pretty open-minded and rich Empire. Still, they never succumbed to Reformation and remained as strong Catholics, thus Reformed Christianity is not very well liked here unlike Orthodoxy - religion of Hungarian subjects, which is more or less accepted.
Used to be rival with Lithuanians, now pretty neutral to them. Main rivals right now for them are Ottomans and Swedes.
Not as big as other Empires, they still managed to establish some Colonies in the black lands of Africa.
Mold. Moldavia
2. After marriage of Jahajła Alhierdavicz and Mariya Moskovskaya the Lithuanian-Muscovite Monarchy - one of soon to be strongest empires in the world was born. After such union Lithuania offically became Orthodox and Ruthenian Metropolis (later Patriarchate) moved to Vilnia - capital city of new dual monarchy. Years later, after the Union of Smalensk the Personal Union became Real Union and Lithuanian-Muscovite Empire emerged. Like the name implies Lithuania is senior and dominating member of union, while Muscovy, even though a slighty bigger territory wise, is more weaker and technologically backward.
The Empire starts from Samogitia and follows through whole Siberia till the far lands of Kamchatka. It even has lands in India. Pretty Conservative country, when compared to countries of the Western Europe. Nowadays only truly Orthodox and Slavic country in the world. Lithuanian (OTL Belarusian) language is one of lingua franca of the Eastern Europe as well northen Asia. Muscovite (OTL Russian) is highly influenced by it, and cause they're both East Slavic and share country for centuries, they're more or less mutually understandable by each other (not like theres any important Muscovite who doesn't know Lithuanian to begin with).
Due to almost whole Rus' (expect Red and Carpatian Ruthenias, whose were never part of Lithuania to begin with) united they're mostly focused on expansion in the Far East and Asia.

3. Empire of Sweden-Prussia-Denmark-Norway or simply known as Empire of Scandinavia and Lower Germany. One of the two Reformed Empires.
With Poland being part of Hungary and Lithuania focused in the East Prussia was mostly left independent. After secularisation of Teutonic Order Prussian Duchy formed Union with Brandenburg and soon became kingdom which united most of Northern Germany.
As for Scandinavian part, after dissolution of Kalmar Union Sweden gained independence when Norway remained under Danish rule.
At the beginning of 17 century Sweden formed Personal Union with Prussia. Century later war of Danish succession emerged thanks to which whole Scandinavia was united once again, this time by Stockholm.
Mostly focused on Baltic trade and its overseas possesions. Dislikes Great Britain very much as they rival them in sea trade.
D. Denmark
4. Papal State.
5. The Kingdom of Naples. Used to be bigger but lost Southern half to the Ottomans.
6. The Kingdom of Luxembourg. Smallest of 3 German states. Nowadays trying to maintain its neutrality.
7. Confederacy of Helvetia.
8. Empire (Republic) of Netherlands. Broke off from Austria. Nowadays has its own colonial Empire.
9. The Kingdom of Northern Italy. United by Grand Duchy of Florence.
10. The Empire of Great Britain and Ireland.
Second of two Reformed Empires. Known for their weird pompous customs. Lately focused on its Asian posessions. Dislikes France and Scandinavia.
Eng. England, W. Wales, Scot. Scotland, Irel. Ireland
11. Managed to fully modernise itself and withstand European colonialism of Africa. Pretty tolerant nowadays, trying to build Ottoman identity based on its multiculturalism. Suprisingly cordial with Catholic Spain due to their shared interests.
12. Persia has quite times of trouble. Ruling dynasty is dependant economically on Lithuanians for quite some time. There are rumours Persian days are numbered and it'll be soon partitioned by neighbouring powers. Time will tell if it'll be true, altough the dependency on Lithuania is actual fact.
13. Empire of Upper India. One of few Muslim countries whose managed to preserve their independence. Originated from Delhi Sultanate.
14. Most secular country in the whole Europe. Managed to avoid Antimonarchist Revolution but the changes were inevitable anyway and goverment was soon divided between Monarch and commoners. This switch to quasi Democracy was actually for better of the French country as it soon expanded into rich colonial Empire.
Thanks to avoidance of French Revolution whole world is more Conservative and monarchies are more common but the Progressive changes are coming anyway, altough slower and weaker. This world core of Progress is located in the New World Colonies.
15. Principality of Andorra.
16. With Lithuania dominating Muscovy Siberia couldn't just became part of the latter. Instead it became its own province with own specific regulations.
Thanks to the fact that there are more Lithuanians than Muscovites the Siberia is actually more Lithuanian (OTL Belarusian) than Muscovite speaking, though obviously, local Lithuanian has its own Siberian standart due to the fact that its too far from the Lithuania Proper.
17. Ruled by Habsburgs Spain is de facto most successful Catholic Colonial Empire having Colonies in most of The South America, not to mention Africa or South East Asia.
Nowadays pretty secular which confirms the fact that they're considering an alliance with Muslim Ottomans in order to gain help against their French&Portuguese rivals.
18. Empire of Portugal. Another Catholic Colonial Empire. The Rival of Spain, especially the Americas. Cordial to France.
19. The Kingdom of Austria, also known as The Kingdom of Upper Germany is yet another Habsburg Monarchy and thus natural ally of Spanish Empire. Never managing to create Empire of their own they at least could call themselves a regional power, unless creation of neighbouring Empires came. Nowadays pretty dependand on Spain. They also allied Florence - their previous enemy, due to shared religion and interests.
