He gets FF's plans wrong, but otherwise, it appears to be pretty good, no? Of course, if we're talking about the advantages of a single large economic unit, then in theory there should be a desire on the part of neighboring countries to join this unit, no? That's what happened with German and Italian unification, after all. IMHO, Austria-Hungary would have benefitted by including Serbia, Romania, Poland, and Ukraine within its territories. That's not possible without a major war along the lines of WWI and a CP victory in that war, of course.
