We can not allow the perfidious frogs a chance at expanding beyond Alsace–Lorraine and attempting to recreate Charlemagne's conquest of the untamed wilderness that is the German city-stateletts!

I propose the formation of a Volksrepublik Deutschland to counterbalance the Deutsche Demokratische Republik and the Räterepublik Baiern.

Edit: Damn "People's Republic of Germany" really doesn't sound right because of the goddamn nazis.

The true children of the land and not those germans-in-denial frankish frogs

We can give everything along the Rhine back to the Romans as a buffer state.

The senate will consist of one representative of every state that claims to be the legacy of Rome.

We including the expanded universe of the 2nd Rome and 3rd rome?

Well we've had Rome, Eastern Rome, Holy Rome, Imperial Russia, Imperial Spain, fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, Greece, all of which claimed to be the continuation of Rome, so I think this would be the 8th or 9th Rome.

The senate would start with an American, a brit, a greek, a turk, a bulgarian, a frenchman, and everyone else who just claimed to carry the legacy of Rome.

It sounds like a conference where everyone would argue about who invented baklava or kebabs or some shit that would set the world alight in nuclear hellfire

Don't forget Ottoman Turkey, one of titles of Sultan since Mehmed II was Kayser-i Rum which literally mean "Roman Emperor" and this was even acknowledged by some treaties with Italians and even German Emperors.

Bring back Lotharingia to solve that problem.
