The '''Occidental Cold War''', sometimes referred to as just '''the Cold War''', was a period of geopolitical tension primarily between the [[Urcea|Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea]] and its allies and the [[Caphiria|Imperium of Caphiria]] and its allies which lasted for more than sixty years, though with intermittent intensity. The Cold War grew out of a period of tension prior to the [[Second Great War]] as part of [[Levantine Creep]] and counter-creep, and continued as a direct result of unresolved issues between the two {{wp|great powers}} following the conclusion of the [[Second Great War]].

In [[1974]], [[Burgundie]]'s economy and cultural stamina was flagging as [[Operation Kipling]] dragged into its 8th year without an end in site. The [[Burgundie|Burgoignacs]] of [[Equitorial Burgundie]], [[Flordeterra]], [[Port de Vent]], and [[Sudmoll]] were feeling neglected as all of the aid money promised to them for reconstruction efforts after the [[Second Great War]] had been diverted to [[Operation Kipling]]. Looking to stimulate these economies and to thwart any resentment boiling over to the point of the [[New Burgundie Secession War]], economists and strategists weighed the option of reopening trade with [[Caphiria]]. The idea was particularly resisted by the public in [[Flordeterra]], who had been nuked by [[Caphiria]] in the closing weeks of the war. As a trial effort the trade between [[Escal]] and [[Sudmoll]] was opened in the summer of [[1974]]. The islands had long been trading partners and during the [[Second Great War]] and the opening phases of the Occidental Cold War when trade was officially shut down, they maintained a strong black market and smuggling economy to maintain their economies. It was determined that regulating this trade, normalizing prices, and taxing would be beneficial for both the governments of [[Burgundie]] and [[Caphiria]]. The move was well received and tax revenues exploded, causing the government of [[Port de Vent]] to petition for the same agreement in the fall. A trade commission saw their trade open just before Christmas. In the proceeding three years trade was cautiously opened more and more, at first on a province by province basis and eventually nationally. | In [[1974]], [[Burgundie]]'s economy and cultural stamina was flagging as [[Operation Kipling]] dragged into its 8th year without an end in site.

[[Burgundie]]'s grand scale adoption of [[containerization]] (greatly bolstered by the logistical requirements of [[Operation Kipling]]) meant that it was able to ship goods more efficiently by an enormous factor and needed new markets to keep up with its new capabilities. Companies like [[O’Shea Container Shipping]] took this opportunity to aggressively market the companies of [[Caphiria]] and became a major import-export carrier of [[Caphiria]]n goods by the early [[1980]]s. It is estimated that the "Thaw" contributed to the global rise of the [[Economy of Burgundie]] in ways and to a degree that no other single piece of legislation as come close to encountering. | [[Burgundie]]'s grand scale adoption of [[containerization]] (greatly bolstered by the logistical requirements of [[Operation Kipling]]) meant that it was able to ship goods more efficiently by an enormous factor and needed new markets to keep up with its new capabilities.

The agreement entailed territorial cessions of the Ecinis peninsula of [[Lariana]] and the island of [[Maristella]] to Caphiria in exchange for Caphirian recognition of [[New Harren]] and Urcea's involvement in [[The Deluge]], a demilitarization of Urlazio and the greater [[Lariana]] region, in addition to creation of free trade zones in the same areas. As part of the agreement, Urcea ceased recognition of the [[Veltorine government-in-exile]] and ordered it to leave Lariana, where it had resided since the end of the [[Second Great War]]. The Accords are widely agreed to have brought about the end of the Occidental Cold War, and also opened the door for further negotiations that resulted in the [[Eight Points Agreement]] decades later, ending the schism between Caphiria and the rest of the [[Catholic Church]]. | ||
