-I'm not sure how big the Borgonze where [[User:Melroch/Rhodrese|Rhodrese]]/[[User:Melroch/Rhodrese/Borgonzay|Borgonzay]] is spoken is. It does extend further south than the French region called Bourgogne in OTL, including Lojú/Lyon and further south along the Rhuodre/Rhône, but not including Provença/Provence nor extending east into OTL Switzerland. I don't know how far west or north it extends, although it does ''not'' include Paris. It includes the full course of Saugone/Saône, and is probably not landlocked but includes Picardie and Cales/Calais. This means it does not directly correspond to the Burgundia of the Dark Ages, having lost Provence but expanded northward.  Due to the existence of Borgonze France and Germany have no common border, and Alsace and Lorraine are German. Still Borgonze was probably part of the realm of Charlemagne and its reemergence is later, similar to what happened in OTL. It may even be part of an in that case less centralist France.
-Walloon would BTW be a separate language or a dialect of R/B too, or perhaps more likely all of Belgium would be Germanic-speaking — not necessarily Dutch-speaking of course!
-The OTL where Borgonze exists may be [[Lucus]].
