I think you just hit the "win" button, though keeping them happy, along with Sweden, is gonna be tough.
I guess it's time to start eating into England and/or the Netherlands for some sweet trade.
>94% liberty desire
Lucky? Really? In only 1469 I'd say this will probably be more of a curse than a blessing.
EDIT: Although come to think of it, Denmark's unique splendor ability will help with that a lot.

Things like this always happen when you don't even plan for or want them to happen at all.
I had something similar as Portugal, inherited France (with thankfuly lower liberty desire and worked to keep it that way), acted as a wonderful European shield as I ate the world. It was succulent!
I already have that splendor ability. I currently have an army of about 12k dudes though, because i was just at war with muscovy and Lithuania over who owns east europe. (muscovy had just very helpfully broken Poland's PU, and then great horde released Polotsk and someone else)
One time, as France, I got a PU with Castille less than 5 years into the game.
Sadly, I was fairly new at the time, so my attempt to turn this ludicrously good luck into a WC or Big Blue Blob failed spectacularly (and the Coalition war didn't last long enough for We Bled For This either...)
Most recent game, I got Hungary as a PU while Spain, specifically a Hungary that hasn't lost a single parcel of land to the Ottomans and had even picked up a few proviences from Poland. Better still, it caused a Succession War with my Rival France, one which not a single ally of his joined, and not a single one of mine (including HRE Austira) chickened out on, leading to a defeat for them that they still haven't recovered from.

Nah, being at war still prevents subjects from declaring war on their overlord (for absolutely no reason) so you'd just have to DoW Novgorod, Muscovy and Livonian order, cut them off from other nations, then circle wars and always white peacing as soon as call for pizza hits you.
Eternally loyal subjects. Can also eat some other nations in the meantime if you want to grow and get your subjects loyal again.
I have spent ~2,000 monarch points developing french provinces, but they're finally almost annexed.
They also gave me ~half of Lithuania, most of the Balkans, Scotland, an Brittany, as well as assisting in argon's independence from Spain, Lithuania's independence from Poland, Hungary's independence from Austria, and stopped the Netherlands revolt cold.
