unaesthetic borders
absolute no go

>ireland gets land in mainland europe instead of just getting belfast back
this is fucking evil autism

This hurts my eyes

The fact that we've survived this long surrounded by so many powerful neighbours is the proof of our superiority. No amount of alt history scenarios will change that fact.

ah yes the eternal kraut
>lets consider how borders look before anything else

You've always been the strongest country in Europe.

All of your neighbours were weaklings

>You've always been the strongest country in Europe
Wrong

This happened for only a few years. After his death the crowns were divided

>HRE
>powerful neighbor
France just kept annexing HRE lands bordering it for centuries and eventually had the largest population and economy in Europe during Napoleon's time

ah yes the eternal mutt
>let's take an obvious joke serious

>no burgundy
>paris exists

He's right tho =. Ugly border = ugly map = ugly feeling admiring your cunt. You should sell florida, look like a benis

>burgundy
No, bring back Lotharingia.

>HRE was powerful
Lol, no. It actually surprises me that France never conquered Germany or at least the western rhine bank before Napeleon.

Why are Eastern Europeans so obsessed with Burgundy. You cannot find a more flyover region in France than Burgundy.

The Duchy of Burgundy is peak class and aesthetic.

>The fact that we've survived this long surrounded by so many powerful neighbours is the proof of our superiority
That would best apply to Switzerland actually.

>Le Harve

I guess typo error is not a flaw by your standard.

no france

Are you dumb or what, as soon we would launch a full scale invasion of the HRE, the entire union alongside their personal unions with other bigger Kingdoms would attack us like a swarm of bees. It surprised me we managed to get some territories in a sneaky way

HRE states often fought each other. in the Thirty Years' war for example France snatched away a large territory of the HRE and got away with it because the Habsburgs were simultaneously fighting the rebellious Protestant states as well as the Dutch and the invading Swedes.
The HRE hardly ever fought united

30 years war really was a special situation.

>>French revolution happens
true that was an occasion where the HRE states were on the same side
but they had no unified command and fought either under the command of Austria or Prussia
>>Coalitions
no. for example Bavaria joined France against Austria
and Prussia didn't support Austria in 1804 or 1809, neither did Austria support Prussia in 1806
only in the end after the French invasion of Russia failed did they fight truly united

the are only unaesthethic because you're not used to them
same reason we find pic related odd, because we're just not used

France was the most populated and most technological advanced country in the 17th/18th century. It still baffles me how Louis XIV. fucked up France so badly despite all that.

>belfast back
>back
when was it ever theirs?

>It actually surprises me that France never conquered Germany or at least the western rhine bank before Napeleon.
It took France about 500 years to conquer France. By the time they were ready to try conquering anybody else (Italy) you had the Habsburgs there to fuck with them.

At least we managed to get Alsace-Lorraine

in the 1400s or something.

French Revolution was another case. Everyone tried to stand agains't the revolutionaires, including conservative frogs

This was more about the revolution being a threat to the feudal system than french expansion.

>Name one flaw
Paris stil exists
Otherwise great map

>A few years
Brazil in charge of history.

Serbia pls
I thought we were friends

What neighbors? Some German dioceses and Italian city states?
