In OTL Ludendorff proposed a peace treaty that didn't went so far, of which Germany would install a hohenzollern in power of Belgium but at the same time it would hand over AL to France to end WWI, this was after the BL treaty, but made me wonder some things. First of all, usually to have Germany win WWI we simple remove the US from the conflict and the germans eventually break the entente, however as some people noted in discussions, there is also the possibility of a bloody stalemate to end the conflict with the entente still managing to hold the germans without american support. Let's say that this happens, could some form of Ludendorff plan to work? The germans could ask the french government to demilitarize the AL and to respect the germans there in exange for the province.
