The marriage with Anne Marie Louise
In 1646, Mademoiselle met Charles, Prince of Wales. Her aunt, Queen Henrietta Maria of England, encouraged the idea of marrying Charles, stating he had taken a "fancy" to Mademoiselle, but nothing further was said at the time.
Soon after, at the death of Empress Maria Anna, Mademoiselle ceased all interest in the prince and thus sighed over a union with her widower, Emperor Ferdinand III. However, under the influence of Mazarin, Queen Anne, her aunt by marriage and regent for the young Louis XIV, ignored Mademoiselle's pleas. The "wealthiest single princess of Europe" was unable to marry the infant Louis XIV or his brother, the Duke of Anjou. Queen Anne suggested her brother, Cardinal Ferdinand of Austria, but Mademoiselle declined.
Queen Anne would arrange the marriage between Anne Marie Louise and her brother Philip IV of Spain who is now seeking for his second wife and her possessions were given back to the French King due to the marriage, she would provide the King of a daughter named Margaret Theresa on May 10, 1652, who is plump and healthy.
On 1650, the son of Gaston of Orleans, Jean Gaston would be born healthy.

The end to the Portuguese revolt
On 1650’s the Portuguese revolt would be defeated in the mainland and pushed off to the seas forcing the Braganzas to go to Brasil due to the concessions given by the Spanish, Catherine of Braganza would be forced to be separated from her brothers for a certain reason and was bought into Spanish custody and forcefully married to John of Austria, that would be disastrous for her.
The concessions given by the Spanish were the following:
The cession of the Northern Half of Luzon, later Nueva Ecija and Celebes and their swap with the Spice Islands.
Cession of the rights of Castile of the parts of Brazil to Portugal.
The Administrative Autonomy of the Portuguese crown.
Lisbon as one of the administrative centers of the Spains
The Portuguese revolt would be pushed off to sea to Brazil which would be independent due to the concessions made by the Spanish to Portugal, Portugal and its other colonies would remain united to the the Spanish crown even to the present or their independence despite of later centralizations after they lost majority of their colonies.

A People who recovered
The now Christian Irraya would be the dominant tribe in the Northern half of Luzon starting on 1650s during the reign of Philip IV as they have recovered from the earlier purges and rebellions against the Spanish.
On the late 1650’s the Castilians would give the Northern Half of Luzon, the provinces of Ilocos, Cagayan, Pangasinan and Pampanga, which would be known as Portuguese Luzon and would be later known as Nueva Ecija to the Portuguese and the Spanish crown in general later due to its mountainous characteristics and similarities to the Ecija region near Seville.
The Malong revolt would start in the Northern half of Luzon in the 1660s due to the late issues of the Spanish administration and was quelled and dealt with a fair government.
And the lands where the Spanish/Portuguese rule will be strong will be on the towns and Irraya would be the native linguafranca of the whole lands of Luzon as Selurongese which is the Malay name of the Island, it would be one of the best colonies oof Portugal as Portugal would have a tabacco monopoly in Nueva Ecija, the country would be granted formal independence on 1900.
