Dude Trajan died of sickness (some sort of oedema causing ailment), not in battle.

Explain this, frog.

>wanting even more potentially hostile minorities in your country

France didn't have major separatists rebellions expect Corsica, but those Flemish and Germans would have been the tipping point.
It could have gotten ugly.

Nah, Flemish and Germans on our side of the Rhine are just Dutch/German-speaking French people. Though admittedly they were in the cultural sphere of influence of Germanic nations for a while, they would have integrated rapidly as we are the same people. France has always been good at dealing with petty regionalism.

No i guess it's just how they calculated the area of the country
