Found that particular mentioned in one of ye not so olde threads.

The Toucouleur Empire is more successful during the 1850's then in OTL (such as taking Timbuktu and defeating the French) and later, modernizes its army and society under a great leader who fends off European conquerors. Afterwards the Toucouleur Empire is recognized as an African power by the Europeans.

They went right into conflict with the French when they started creating their western African Empire. So, is a Toucouleur Empire with enough staying power until the modern day possible?
