I have to say that I like what I read. Congratulation. You have been moving away from the original setting and i appreciate.

Only two things disturb me.

First, you have Portugal to join the Mediterranean Union and I don't see any reason for that. In the mid-1990's portugal was maintaining tight relations with France and it continues today but I'm not convinced that the Portuguese would turn their back on Britain, US and NATO. If they do, why? Portugal is very much an Atlantic country, it has no interest and never expressed any interest in the Mediterranean. They have a state of mine resembling that of the UK and most of their economical ties are with Brazil. Africa could be an interest but none of its former colonies seem to join the Union.

Something else. What about the EU. Did it disolve, what it's position, how does the Mediterranean Union fits into this?
