Following the Hiroshima bombing, Charles Maurras began drafting an extended letter addressed to Vincent Auriol in response to his 1944 book Yesterday and Tomorrow, which analyzed the events leading to the military disaster of 1940 and proposed post-war projects.

Although this reasoning is flawed, historian Martin Motte notes that Maurras accurately foresaw a potential informal domination by Germany, transforming Europe into a "new Holy Roman Empire",[5] leaving France as a mere "satellite".
