Actually, you won't. That term would be rendered void because the Lance Empire doesn't exist anymore, and also because I am referring to a collapse of their New Germania. That is, Lance 'Loyalists' vs 'Numburg Loyalists' vs 'Unionst' Vs other political leanings Vs Numburgs Political/Economic Elite (They are run in a vastly different manner to the Lance, and won't want to risk their power) Vs Lance Royalists vs various Lance ethnicities (His lands are vast and made up of many people, many of which probably won't like getting referred to as under a completely new and dominant title that they might not even be part of) If you would still want to help in that conflict, which Lance would you be helping haha. Then again this is hypothetical, Gowia might let them off without a hitch... But given how they are only slightly stable, have vastly different policies and political systems as well as likely having social differences (They have been apart for a long time, whether they stem from the same culture or not they are all likely different. Many European languages stem from Latin, they sound nothing alike, and the same goes for their cultures) we will likely be seeing a break down. Which means their colonies might end up for grabs, though the news would take a long time to spread. Their homelands would be susceptible to invasion though. Expect a dramatic power shift, and I myself expect a boost in status as a result of the sudden power void, I already have the largest and most powerful navy, I just need to push up my economy and military and with the Lance Military no longer being available as substitute for my own, I will need to establish a fine military quickly, justifying a rapid change in policies which most of my people will then see the logic behind given the new situation and thus hopefully avoid any internal troubles
