Nauta Normand is known for its hard-nosed residents who brace the elements every day to live on the desolate and barren landscape. It is however a critical [[Navy of Burgundie|naval]] and scientific outpost for [[Burgundie]] which are the two largest sectors of the economy. Because of the focus on science, the Normandiennes are incredibly well educated and their Internet speeds are fastest in [[Burgundie]], averaging around 3gigs. The Normandiennes are predominantly focused on traditional lives fishing, herding, weaving, and what little agriculture can be eeked out, but the youth are preferring to go to [[Kiravia]] and the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]] in greater and greater numbers. To make up for this, larger and larger numbers of immigrants are being given incentives to move to Nauta Normand to maintain these cottage industries which is being met with mixed reactions from the locals.

==History==
==Etymology==
Nauta Normand has been a seasonal fishing, sealing, and whaling station for [[Coscivian]]s for centuries. It was not permanently settled until the Burgoignesc arrived in the 1700s. For the first half century the [[Coscivian]]s and whalers from the [[Duchy of Martilles]] co-habitated the island during the various whaling, fishing, and sealing seasons.
Northern Sailor
In the summer of [[1748]] the [[Duchy of Martilles]] set charged the [[Burgoignesc North Levantine Trading Company|Martillien North Levantine Trading Company (MNLTC)]] to establish a year-round presence on the island. Harsh winter conditions killed or forced the retreat of the first three expeditions. However, in [[1753]] the Martilliens were able to survive the winter and established the Nauta Normand colony in the modern capital, Soix. The colony was administered by the MNLTC for the next 123 years. During that time there were numerous small clashes with [[Kiravia]] as part of the [[Kiro-Burgoignesc Wars]] but none that caused the island’s sovereignty to come into question. It was dying this period that Nauta Normand became a vital whale oil and ice supplier for first the [[Duchy of Martilles]] and then the unified [[Burgundie]]. The island was joined into [[Burgundie]] as a province in [[1876]] and organized under [[BORA]] in [[1908]] when that was established.
 
During the [[First Great War]] the island was blockaded by the [[Kiravian Littoral Force]] until [[Burgundie]] signed an agreement to abstain from stationing military forces on the island. The island was left along for the rest of the war with the exception of [[Kiravia]]n inspectors who were allowed to visit the islands to ensure that [[Burgundie]] was keeping it's word.
 
At the outbreak of hostilities of the [[Second Great War]], [[Burgundie]] reached out to [[Kiravia]] and offered to demilitarize [[Nauta Normand]] in exchange for a guarantee of [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc sovereignty]]. [[Kiravia]] agreed but did station a patrol boat off the port of Soix for the whole of the war to indicate that [[Kiravia]] could enforce a blockage if they so chose.
 
During the latter half of the 20th century Nauta Normand's primary exports whale oil and ice were outpaced by technology, the island slipped into decline and it was considered to sell the island to [[Kiravia]] in the 1970s. However, with hundreds of thousands of veterans returning to the workforce in the waning years of [[Operation Kipling]] the solitude of Nauta Normand appealed to many veterans who were having trouble adapting to hyper-urbanized civilian life. 25,748 veterans eventually moved to Nauta Normand between [[1973]] and [[1994]] and they readily adopted to the simpler life of the Normandiennes. Today, the children and grandchildren of these veterans make up the majority of the Normandienne population. The island is sometimes referred to as the last ancient veterans coloniæ.
 
In the 21st century the island has seen an increasing decline in population as young people are moving to [[Kiravia]] and the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]]. Immigrants and their families are being incentivised to move to Nauta Normand to keep the cottage industries going. This has led to a resurgence of the economy and economic investment by the central government.
 
==Politics and government==
Nauta Normand is part of the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]]'s [[Geography_of_Burgundie#Wintergen|Polar Burgundies]] geographic designation. [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]] is a constituent country equivalent of [[Burgundie]] with its own assembly, prime minister, budget, and laws. [[Burgundie]]'s national governmental influence is limited to subsidies, education, and security, however, its financial and cultural institutes cast a long shadow across Nauta Normand.
 
Nauta Normand is a province within [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]] with its own semi-elected {{wp|Governor}}-{{wp|Epistates}}, representative legislative body, and court system.
 
Nauta Normands are Burgoigniacs/Burgoignix with complete civil and economic rights, and citizenship (political rights) under the same federal service criteria as all residents of [[Burgundie]]. [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] is the official language but [[Coscivian language|Coscivian]] and [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] are both in use.
===Provincial executive===
The provincial executive is the {{wp|Governor}}-{{wp|Epistates}}. Three candidates are elected by a {{wp|single transferable vote}} election held every 5 years, the three candidates are presented to the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Executive_Branch|Court of St. Alphador]] and the next {{wp|Governor}}-{{wp|Epistates}} is chosen from these candidates. If the citizenry rejects the selection, a run-off election is held with the remaining two candidates.
 
===Provincial legislature===
Like the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Legislative_Branch|Citizens Court of the National Assembly (Burg. La Assemblee de Ciutadans de l'Assemblee Nacional, ACAN)]], The Nauta Normand Citizen's Court of the Provincial Assembly is a unicameral legislator. It makes provincial law, has the power of the provincial purse, and has the power of impeachment, by which it can remove sitting members of the provincial government. The Assembly has three seats for each province, one for the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]]'s Nauta Normand liaison, 3 for the clergy, 3 seats reserved for municipal leaders, and 3 for a rota of private business leaders. On 6 occasions throughout the year 3 more seats are opened to the public to debate topics that are not on the annual legislative agenda.

Nauta Normand falls under the [[Navy_of_Burgundie#Kilikas_Command|Navy's Kilikas Command]], the [[Army of Burgundie|Army's Boreal Command]], the [[Royal Air Service of Burgundie]]'s Boreal Command, and the [[Vocivine National of Burgundie]]'s Coscivian Sea Command. The [[Navy_of_Burgundie]] and the [[Vocivine National of Burgundie|Vocivine]] are the only services that maintain a permanent presence on the island. The fleet ships of the [[Navy_of_Burgundie|Navy]] and submarines of the [[Vocivine National of Burgundie|Vocivine]] are stationed at St. Devereaux Naval Station. Some elements of Battle Squadron North Star and Sustainment Group Tundra Timber are permanently stations in St. Devereaux. The Boreal [[List of icebreaker classes of the Navy of Burgundie|icebreaker fleet]] is also stationed at St. Devereaux Naval Station. 8 icebreakers are stationed here, and they are used to conduct sovereignty patrols but also to clear the shipping lanes for cargo ships coming to and from Port Soix.
 
 
Every able-bodied resident of Nauta Normand, over 18 and under 65, is conscripted into the Normandienne Fencible Regiment of Marine Infantry ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]:'''Regiment Fencible du Normandiennes d'Infantrie Marine (RFNIM)'') of the [[Navy of Burgundie]] which requires that the citizens act as a ready reserve force, ensuring that the [[Army of Burgundie]] does not have to maintain a garrison on the islands. The RFNIM is also a functional universal basic income to support the population as the economy is shrinking the youth are moving to [[Kiravia]] or the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]].

86% of the Normandiennes identify as [[Occidental]], 78% as [[Bergendii]] or [[Levantia|Southern Levantine]], specifically. 15% identify as [[Coscivian]], but there is some overlap with [[Coscivian]]s who also identified as [[Occidental]]. 7% of the population are [[Audonian]] and the remainder are other or mixed.
Nauta Normand is experiencing a large demographic shift as the youth are preferring to go to [[Kiravia]] and the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]] in greater and greater numbers. To make up for this, larger and larger numbers of immigrants are being given incentives to move to Nauta Normand to maintain these cottage industries which is being met with mixed reactions from the locals.
Regardless, Nauta Normand is currently predominantly [[Catholic]], fair skinned, [[Burgophonic]], and well educated. The fastest growing minority are second and third generation immigrants from [[Audonia]], they predominantly Muslim Arabs, but are notably secularized compared to their parents and are fluent [[Burgophones]].

Because Nauta Normand's economy is a high-low mix of sectors from research to traditional fishing and herding, opportunities abound for Normandiennes at all skill and education levels, which has helped the islands maintain a fairly steady unemployment rate of around X% for the last decade.
