French Empire (Eradiate)

The French Empire was introduced by Eradiate into his AFOE series in: Episode 12 - The German Question.
France was a significant nation in Eradiate's AFOE series. She drifted between alliances and following WWIV, defeated Ardumus, Russia and Great Britain and reignited the most powerful French-led country since Napoleon.
Following the Graxine coup in 2020, France sided with Austro-Germania and the UK against the Ardumian and Graxine cause; citing them to be a danger to the European peace. Tensions sustained themselves until Graxum declared war on Turkey, beginning WWIII.
The war was a disaster to the anti-Graxine alliance, with Graxum orchestrating the complete collapse of Austro-Germania and invading and subjugating multiple nations and innumerable amounts of people. The UK and France, following the Austro-German collapse, gradually lost hope and morale, and the UK, eventually suing for peace, left France alone to succumb to the relentless Graxine forces.
France was occupied for years following WWIII but was eventually released from occupation by Ardumus and Graxum; to the chagrin of Russia. They were immediately sour to the UK and Italy, feeling resentment towards them for abandoning them in WWIII, and announced they would be 'going alone' and expanded into the theatre of Germany, which was fractured into many small, powerless nations.
Graxum, whom had just lost Ardumus as an ally, sought an opportunity by the almighty French hate for Britain and Italy and eventually established an alliance with them. France and Graxum, being inherently bellicose and aggressive towards neighbouring countries, had war declared on them by Russia, (whom had sided from Graxum due to arguments regarding the release of Germany), Ardumus, Britain and Italy, amidst the French invasion of neutral Switzerland.
Graxum aroused many revolutionaries and separatists in Russia to rise up against the oppressive Eurasian government. They succeeded; and the new government sued for peace. Italy then collapsed, and then did Germany. After that, Britain begged France for mercy. France cited his reason for defecting from the anti-Graxine cause was him being empowered by Graxum and him viewing resent towards Britain for his betrayal in WWIII. 
France then went on to conquer Ardumus, which summed up the series. Even though the French invasion of Britain was never shown, it is presumed that France went on to win WWIV along with Graxum whom is in partnership with him with total rule of Europe.
