History
In episode 1 Levantaos' AFoE series, Germany invades luxembourg, and takes all their land. Belgium and the Netherlands were friends with Luxembourg and declare war on Germany, but they call in France, initiating the "Franco-German reclamation war". France, Belgium and the Netherlands win but ironically take all the land for themselves as they see how fertile it is. Then, Belgium and the Netherlands slowly become France's vassals and together they make up the URWE.

What is it like?
The country is a mix of French and German culture, but the French and the Germans hate each other bitterly because the Germans see the French as greedy invaders but the French see it as taking back their old land. The population is 112,612,045 people and the climate is temperate. It is a rich 1st world country and considered a nice place to live, and the immigrants coming to Europe from Syria are settling in the URWE rather than in Great Britain. The flag is on the right.
