Wonder if a post-Liberation France would then try to reconquer it?Brittany becames independent when nationalists collaborated with Nazis (they did it and Germany planned to create an independent Brittany after the war). During Overlond, Brittany changes side and helps decisively the Allies so survives with a referendum in post-war. The Nationalist Pro-Nazi Goverment, after a short democratic period to appease Allies, evolved in a semi-fascist and authoritarian nation until Jean-Marie LePen's election, that turned the country in a totalitarian state. Brittany can gain nuclear material from Libya or Iraq and create his arsenal. Today it's a sort of totalitarian and oppressive villain-nation with a major arsenal, completely dominated by the personality cult of LePen dynasty.

What if the Basque region of Spain managed to gain independence from Spain? A nation born of violence and bloodshed in the late 50s or early sixies could be a pariah state that eventually becomes a hermit nation.
At the risk of looking ignorant, what is Ulm?Ulm is created in 1945 before the Nazi defeat. It creates an alpine-based army and creates massive fortress around the country to avoid allied invasions or reconquest attempts by possible new German states. Developes a nuclear program with the collaboration of the Nazi scientists. After the fall of the Soviet Union, Ulm turns a nazi dictatorship but with no fuhrer, they have a Politburó-like council as head of state. In 2015, Ulm decides to expand further into Germany profiting refugee crisis and they conquer half Germany, declaring the First Reich of Ulm. The new Reich, although it's hermit, promotes independence movements in Ryukyu, Jan Mayen and Central Korea.

Don't they have an alliance with NATO?Isn't Belarus like 90% there already in OTL?
I actually forgotten that, and I think it is more of a "relationship" than an alliance.Don't they have an alliance with NATO?

NATO is the hot girl on campus that insecure Russia hates, and at whom Belarus periodically smiles while passing in the bookstore just to make Russia appreciate it more.
