This will get released first than Grimoire, that I can assure you.
Here a hint:
I have not yet decided about the general situation in Balkans.
All of Iberia south of the Ebro river but Gibraltar is controlled by a stereotypical Caliphate of Iberia that dreams of conquering all of Europe and spreading the religion of peace to its remnants. Most of it was depopulated. Same on Southern Italy split between a Gaddafi style dictatorship in Sicily and the Republic of Naples which emerged as a sort of not completely successful "Arab Spring" against the King of Kings of Sicily. Naples is the only secular Berber country in the post-ITZ world. Papal Rome controls a strip of land in Central Italy between the Imperium and Naples and the Church returned to the old days of "unremitting defense of Western Civilization" instead of Vatican II.
As for Southern France, that screenshot explains it, and Coptic Marseille also is one of the first possible roads of expansion through conquest for the Imperium. I thought that making everything that arrived from North Africa stereotypical would be too banal, thus only Iberia is the stereotypical Andhaira faction, and with over 60 IC, they are a serious threat to CNT-FAI, Lisbon Commune, the Minarchist(and obviously 'thal) Basque Republic and the Kingdom of Galicia, to the point the existence of Iberia forced them into setting aside their ideological and political differences and even consider a possible alliance(by events once this gets done).
Also the Templars will have an unique decision involving the launch of a crusade to retake Sicily, but only if they reform into an actual post-apoc Knightly Order rather than the Sicilian Mafia dressed up as Knights Templar they are in the beginning of the scenario.
As for Gibraltar, it, like Ibiza and Malta, is controlled by a strange faction. Here some in-game quotes about it:
"Try your luck at Le Grand Casino de Monte Carlo! Your safety Guaranteed by Knights Hospitaller! We accept Denarii, Bayernmarks, Euros, Templar banknotes and Pesetas!"
--Banner on the cratered road to Monte Carlo, Monaco
"The rebirth of gambling is recent, but vices always return faster than the best things of civilization. It's unclear how Monaco survived the War and how the Knights Hospitaller took control of it."
--Chronicles of a Nomadic Berliner
*Edit:
Iberia and Sicily are "Warlord Property", Marseille is a Post-War Republic and Naples is an Elective Kleptocracy(something similar to most RL thirdworldia "democracies")
PS: The three "main" alliances are the Democratic Union, led by the New Bavaria Republic, the Imperial Pact, led by the Imperium and the Mars Accord, led by the Brotherhood of Iron.
What's the situation in Iberia, Scandinavia, the Balkans and the Near East?

And of course, Juche Eurasia is the fourth main "alliance"
