'''Alcairet''', colloquially called '''Gassavelie Nouveau''' (New [[Kingdom of Gassavelia|Gassavelia]]), is a [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] [[Government_of_Burgundie#Provincial_and_Colonial_Government|province]] of the [[BORA|Burgoignesc Overseas Representative Assembly]] in confluence of the [[Sea of Istroya]] and the [[Aab-e-Farus]], in the [[Barbary Straits]] in [[Audonia]]. It is considered part of [[La Garrote]] a chain of [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc islands]] that historically allowed the [[Maritime Dericania]]n principalities to control the trade routes of western [[Audonia]]. Historically Alcairet was a part of the states that ruled the northern coast of [[Battganuur]]. It was conquered by the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] in the 7th century AD. It remained under [[Oduniyyad Caliphate|Oduniyyad]] control until the fall of that empire in [[1514]] when it was left to its own devices until the [[Truffle Races]] between the coastal states of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] ([[Burgundie]]) and [[Caphiria]] led to its annexation by [[Burgoignesc Kandahar-Kandara Trading Company|Company for the Aid of the Protestants Refugees]] in [[1577]]. It was administered as part of the [[Barbary Straits Colony]] from [[1577]]-[[1836]] when the mainland was lost, then given provincial status in [[1875]] when the unified nation of [[Burgundie]] was formed.

Alcairet is an island in the western mouth of the [[Barbary Straits]]. The islands are the remains of a land bridge that used to connect the southwestern and northern continental islands of [[Audonia]]. At the end of the last ice age when sea levels rose, the lowlands flooded and formed the [[Barbary Straits]].
