Île-de-France and its environs has been the center of the country for decades, which is kinda crazy to me since it's such a large European country. Marseille is the second largest city in France- how could it have been more prominent? Even as a potential capital for north-south type divisions or other sorts of semi-separatism in France? Maybe Arles or Burgundy?
