My most up-front concern is the lack of dates or even years given to these events, which makes things confusing in the case of the student protests; which are framed in the same sort of events as post-war France but with the implication of 60's or 70's style mass TV broadcasting (remembering the war ended in 1920's). Furthermore, there's still a sort of France swinging hard-left under the nose of Spain which would have been the cause of a hissy fit from Madrid.
