History: The Holy Carolingian Empire was a successor to older empires of Carolingian origin like the medieval Carolingian empires, Charlesmagne's old pre-HRE dynasty and the Holy Roman Empire itself. The HCE was founded in 1946, after northern France, which was occupied by Nazi Germany during WW2, never joined the free France by rather founding the empire of Carolingian origin. It then annexed French colonies in Africa, Northwestern Germany, Southern Belgium and Adelié Land in Antarctica, as well having two protectorates and establishing a vassal state in Vojvodina. It is a great rival of the USSR, East Germany and Yugoslavia since then.
Any other things you might want to note: This nation is inspired by Holy Britannian Empire from Code Geass.
