Really I like to think of the HRE as like Voltron with all the pilots hating each other. Separated they are still fucking lions, and together they are a scary force to be reckon with (which is why France was constantly trying to keep them down). Not like Poland or Rome proper whose divisions just weakened them horribly even divided there was still Bavaria, Handover, Switzerland, Netherlands, Frankfurt, Saxony, Austria, and of course Prussia just one of them is enough to raise hell in Europe, but combined together they create the demon king.

The USA is a nation of inbreed morons and France is responsible for the death of the real Roman Empire.
