What if the Franco-German Union Formed in 1950?

A possible Union of France and West Germany could help start World War Three, which is a scenario I explored. A union between the two countries was proposed by the Germans, but France declined. If they had united successfully, how would the Soviet Union react? Let’s find out!

Both France and Germany would benefit from this union, but they had different motivations behind them calling for a union.

The Union was proposed in 1950 by the German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, but why did he want to give up German autonomy and unite with France? His goal was to receive full rights for the still occupied West German state, as he wanted West Germany to be equal to France, Britain, and Italy. A Franco-German union would benefit West Germany, as it would also help them better protect themselves from the Soviet Union.
