Game such as wild boar (Cignale, Singhjari) is popular, and in old times {{wp|mouflon}} (muvra) were consumed. There also is seafood and river fish such as trout. Delicatessen such as figatellu, coppa, ham (prizuttu), lonzu are made from Ventan pork (porcu nustrale). Cheeses like Brocciu, casgiu merzu (the Ventan version of the [[Lucrecia]]n casu marzu), casgiu veghju are made from goat or sheep milk. Chestnuts are the main ingredient in the making of pulenta. A variety of alcoholic drinks also exist, ranging from aquavita (brandy), red and white Ventan wines (Vinu Ventu), muscat (plain or sparkling), and the famous "cap vent".

====Carto-Pelaxian Viceroyal March of Ventia====
Due to the importance of the islands they were annexed into the [[Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth]] in [[1702]] as the Viceroyal March of Ventia. This enraged the citizens who felt their [[Latinic]] culture being stripped even further from them. A sabotage campaign started almost immediately and the [[Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth|Commonwealth]] sent troops to suppress the "rebellion" in early [[1704]]. These troops were initially placed just in ports and shipyards to protect the [[Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth|Commonwealth]]'s interests, but as the sabotage campaigns continued the troops were sent out into the populace to conduct pacification missions. These further stirred up anti-[[Pelaxia]]n sentiment. By [[1709]] the islands were in full rebellion. During this time the [[Southern Route]] had bypassed the islands all together as instability made them unattractive to captains and ship owners. As the islands became less important to the [[Southern Route|route]], it became less important to the [[Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth|Commonwealth]]. In [[1713]], the [[Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth|Commonwealth]] negotiated a treaty with the islands to release them from their suzerainty, but it did not go as far as to recognize the island's independence.

{{wp|Marine biology}}, {{wp|environmental sustainability}}, and {{wp|renewable energy}} sources are key areas of focus. Universities and research institutions collaborate with [[Burgoignesc Metropole|Metropole]] and [[Equatorial Ostiecia]]n partners to tackle global challenges and develop solutions specific to the island nation's needs. This investment in science and research is laying the foundation for a knowledge-based economy, transitioning from the traditional agricultural-based economy that historically dominated the islands.
