I find the complex history of post-imperial Gaul very interesting with Aegidius and Syagrius hold on against Germanic invaders while being in different alliances and only de forma subordinate to Constantinople. So, what if other Soissons exists in other parts around the Mediterranean and Europe, with Romanized elites ruling ? Northern Africa would be interesting , maybe a reclaimed Carthage. Well there have to be many butterflies, factors are the Justinic Plague, the Arab conquest etc. But maybe one could integrate Roman rump states into a semi OTL history. Goal is to maintain Roman enclaves into the High Middle Ages. What would the relationship with Christian Europe and the Eastern Romans for example be ? How would they evolve independently from each other in a prolonged time frame?
