Fleurs de lys are on the wrong direction on the flag, and this whatever crown above the crest is nowhere near to be frank or french.

I don't understand, Provence is totally included in Burgundy (like it used to be at the time of Burgunds invasions and Kingdom of Arles), but what you call Provence on the map is roughly Languedoc with few others provinces like Auvergne...

It would've been an interesting empire
I wonder if this monarchy would've choose a main language (perhaps a frankish neo-latin, since Aachen/Aix was at the border between romanic & germanic languages), or if the country would've stay multilingual.

Nice job! This one looks quite plausible and realistic! 
I suppose the PoD would be Lothair's coup against his father, charlemagne, succeeding. This prevents the fracturing of the frankish empire and guarantees its position as a "second western roman empire" of sorts.
