What would it look like with politically advantageous gerrymandering?

France - six seats:

Ile-de-France: Right vs. Left battleground. Western Paris, 92, and 78 all for the right, 93 heavily for the left, 94 still polarized between left and right. Right wins when it wins nationwide, left wins when it wins nationwide. Far-right polls well in the 93. Commies do well in 93 and select areas of the 92 and 94. Seine-et-Marne overall rightwing, Val-d'Oise and Essonne more divided (Essonne leans rightie, though)
France North West: Left wins NPdC, Picardie, and probably Haute Normandie. Does well in Calvados and Cherbourg, right wins rural areas in Oise, Orne, Manche, Calvados, Marcq-en-Baroeul etc. Far-right polls well in NPdC and a few other areas in Picardie and Haute-Normandie but does usually awful in Basse-Normandie. A Communist party would do relatively well in the NPdC, Picardie, and Le Havre/Dieppe.
France North East: Right could probably sweep all 'regions' (assuming they become the subnational entities) if the election plays well for them. Lefties would do well in urban areas, Meurthe-et-Moselle, possibly Ardennes. The centrist party does well in Alsace (probably second in rural Alsace). Far-right would poll decently. Commies poll "decently" in northern Meurthe-et-Moselle (Longwy and the other thingee)
France West: Right vs. left battleground. Left wins urban areas and Bretagne, maybe Poitou-Charentes. Right polls well in rural pays de la Loire and Centre. Centrists do well in Bretagne and Pays de la Loire. Far-right almost irrelevant in most areas except a few thingees here and there.
France South East: Right-wing overall. Polls extremely well in Var, 06, some parts of the 13, Vaucluse, both Savoies (especially Haute-Savoie), Ain, northern Isere, rural Rhone and Loire. Left does well in parts of the 13, Lyon, Saint-Etienne, and Grenoble. A Commie party does well in Venissieux, Marseille-8, Givors, and possibly Saint-Etienne and Grenoble. Centrists also do well in Rhone, Savoie. Corse is still dominated by political dyansties. Would be amusing to see where the nationalists/autonomists/random mafia goes. Far-right polls quite well (very well in some areas).
France South West: Left-wing for sure. They do very well in the Midi-Pyrenees, Languedoc-Rousillon (save for Lozere), Limousin, Auvergne (except Cantal and Haute-Loire), and parts of Aquitaine (suburban Bordeaux, Landes, most of the Pyrenees-Atlantique). Right has some strength in Lozere, Cantal, Haute-Loire, northern Pyrenees-Orientales (could win the south of it if the conditions are right). Lot-et-Garonne and Tarn-et-Garonne probably the volatile areas. Left favoured in Tarn-et-Garonne though. Centrists poll well in Lozere, Cantal, Haute-Loire, and Pyrenees-Atlantique. Commies polls well in Allier, parts of Puy-de-Dome, parts of Herault and Pyrenees-Orientales. Far-right does OK in Languedoc-Rousillon, parts of Gironde and Lot-et-Garonne.

Right-wing victory scenario:
Right 4
Left 2

I'm with you!

BTW, in Bangladesh, the right wins urban areas, and the left wins rural areas. Big generalization, but basically true.

1/1000 of the world's population. For Afghanistan, it was slightly less than 6 mil for Algeria, it is about 6.8 mil, and that's here:

That is the same as India generally. There are some conservative Hindu rural areas but mostly rural areas have that populist bend to them. Urban areas have money and thus economic conservatism.

Imagine these constituencies with US style partisan gerrymandering.
