Well, make it not leftist. You could get away with a Republic, or a form of authoritarian government (remember, like I said before, there are no people called 'fascists' because that term comes from Mussolini's movement, which doesn't exist in our world). A monarchy might be impractical, since a monarch would inevitably butt heads with liberals and the sort of monarchy an old school aristocrat would want is going to be a hard sell.

If I were you, I would be going through Veoline's suggestions and taking them to heart, since he is actually French and understands that cultural intuitively, whereas Aaron and I are Americans and will inevitably be stuck interpreting France through an American lens.

Wait, what did Veoline suggest?
