 ===Nature and architecture===
 Both because of the influence of [[Art Nouveau in Burgundie]] and the concept of ''ort de thermis'' nature and architecture have a symbiotic relationship in [[Burgundie]]. The tropical climate of most the [[Burgoignesc thatalocrassy]] the need for cooling long predates the development of air conditioning. {{wp|Passive cooling}} has been a key element of [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] architecture since ancient times. In more modern times, as mechanical cooling became more ubiquitous, these passive cooling techniques become less a requirement and more a decorative feature. In a more climate conscious world, indoor-outdoor living has become even more prevalent as a way to stay passively cool without using air conditioning.
+===Monumentalism and City Beautiful===
+{{wp|Monumentalism}} and {{wp|City Beautiful}} are closely intertwined in [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] urban planning and development. Monumental architecture was a key tool in [[Burgundie]]'s City Beautiful movement's efforts to create impressive and inspiring urban landscapes. Following the unification of [[Burgundie]] and the required rebuilding of cities devastated in the [[First Fratricide]], and also to demonstrate it's cultural dominance over the [[Dericania]]n's, [[Burgundie]] embraced {{wp|Monumentalism}} and {{wp|City Beautiful}} as it's driving urban planning doctrines.
