Had the victorious powers--for whatever reason (for instance, perhaps as a result of feeling more angry towards France as a result of a Anglo-Prussian loss at Waterloo and the protracted war that followed)--decided to dismember France after the Napoleonic Wars, how would French and European politics throughout the 19th century have developed?
Also, I want to clarify what exactly I mean by a dismemberment of France here; what I mean is this:
-Occitania is completely split off from France and is turned into a separate kingdom (with a ruler from another royal family).
-What happens with Occitania likewise happens with Brittany. Indeed, it might be more justifiable (from a historical perspective) in the case of Brittany considering that Brittany was previously an independent state and then a duchy for several centuries.
-The Franco-Provencal areas are given to either Switzerland or Piedmont-Sardinia or are split between Switzerland and Piedmont-Sardinia.
-Prussia gets Alsace-Lorraine.
-The Netherlands gets French Flanders.
-The rest of France (rump France/northern France) gets turned into a Bourbon kingdom as in our TL.
Anyway, how does French and European politics throughout the 19th century develop in this TL?
