They had the following children: Ingeborg was a potential heir to the Danish throne in 1363 upon the death of her only surviving brother, Christopher, Duke of Lolland.
The nobles were divided between either electing Ingeborg's son Albert IV, put forth by his grandfather Albert II, Duke of Mecklenburg; Margaret's son Olaf II, heir to the Norwegian throne; or choosing a new dynasty.
The estates were eventually won over by Queen Margaret's charm and popularity, as the only surviving daughter of the deceased king, and along with the potential of a union with Norway and anti-German sentiments, Olaf II was elected as King of Denmark in 1376 with Queen Margaret as regent.
Ingeborg's grandson Eric of Pomerania, inherited the rights of his grandmother and succeeded as King of Denmark in 1396 with Margaret as his regent.
Her last surviving descendant was Christopher of Bavaria, who succeeded Eric as ruler of the Kalmar Union.
