    West Francia? When it’s being ruled by Charles the Bald? There is no BDE, nothing remotely sigma, about a ruler whose honorific is “the bald.” I mean, he’s got a cousin named Nithard, deeply unserious leader.

    Lothar, cool name, but c’mon, getting ousted from power in 834 by Louis and driven out to his rump state in Italy, that does not say winner. I mean, Lotharinga got absorbed into East Francia a century later, weeeeeeak.

    So we’re going with Louis the German and East Francia. They’re winners, they had staying power into the tenth century, and survived the transfer from Carolingians to the Ottonians.

    Gascogny. instead of attempting to rule over the Basque region, I unite its people and fortify their mountain towns to build a eternal, impregnable homeland from which to eventually eradicate the squabbling latins from history.

    I take East Francia and subsequently burn it all to the ground, salting the Earth and forcibly moving it’s entire populace to the surrounding kingdoms. So-called “Germany” will be suffocated in its crib.

    everyone thinks lotharingia is silly but it’s literally the most productive and best protected of the three, all Lothair needed to do is ally to one to take out the other brother and then betray the ally. he might have failed but i’m built different

    You think you’re going to rule Alsace? We’re in 843 motherfucker. You are a serf. You need to give your lord the grain.

    West Francia turns into France, while East Francia becomes the HRE and the middle one disappears. Pretty easy choice tbh.

      You say it disappears, but Lotharingia’s brief existence caused ripples that caused wars throughout the second millenium
