Argaea is owned almost exclusively by the [[Government of Burgundie|government]] as it was initially settled in the 1880s and later annexed, in [[1927]], as a research outpost for the National Insitutes of Burgundie ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''les Institues Nacional de Burgundie (INB)''). The INB, in conjunction with royal and national societies of various scientific studies managed the islands from [[1927]] until [[1973]], when a resort was established just outside of Le Havre, for soldiers, sailors, and marines on rest and relaxation from [[Operation Kipling]]. Even after the war there was interest in vacationing in the marine west coast climate, especially in the winter months when skiing and other snow sports in the winter, June to August. In the 21st century the tourism industry has quadrupled in size as [[ | Argaea is owned almost exclusively by the [[Government of Burgundie|government]] as it was initially settled in the 1880s and later annexed, in [[1927]], as a research outpost for the National Insitutes of Burgundie ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''les Institues Nacional de Burgundie (INB)'').

Argaea's primary purpose and main economic driver is still that it is a haven for scientific research, but it's cold climate has made increasingly important to the [[Government of Burgundie|government]] for establishing secure, passively cooled, data centers for government cloud computing storage. As a result, since [[2016]] the [[Cyber Security Defense Agency of Burgundie]] has established a permanent base on Argaea with a staff of 430 staff. The [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]] has increased its footprint on the island as well, to protect the physical assets of government. It is also a key base for the [[Vocivine National of Burgundie|Vocivine]] and [[Navy_of_Burgundie|Navy]] because of its remoteness. | Argaea's primary purpose and main economic driver is still that it is a haven for scientific research, but it's cold climate has made increasingly important to the [[Government of Burgundie|government]] for establishing secure, passively cooled, data centers for government cloud computing storage.

Arcadia was lightly colonized by the Duchy of martial's in the late 16th century until the mid 18th century as a whaling station and later as a penguin and ice factory. It was never a full fledged colony and as never self-sufficient but it's revenue was important to the Duchy and the ice gave the Metropole as taste of refinement. The colony never had permanent population of more than 200 people, mostly men, spread across three whaling stations on Argaea Maior and Argaea Minor. | |||

[[Burgundie]]'s high emphasis on [[Culture_in_Burgundie#Education|education]] translates to a particularly educated and skilled workforce, leading to lower unemployment compared to less developed countries. The islands' economic diversity cushions against overreliance on any single industry, which has demonstrably made the island more resilient during downturns. Since [[Burgundie]] strives for [[Total Economic Engagement]] and espouses equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, ability, or background, Argaea benefits from improved access to education and training, impacting employment prospects across various fields. | [[Burgundie]]'s high emphasis on [[Culture_in_Burgundie#Education|education]] translates to a particularly educated and skilled workforce, leading to lower unemployment compared to less developed countries.
