They love the sea, like a lot. The national motto is ''In Fluctus Aigean Mon Bontie Expectat'' (Aeng: Upon the Ocean Waves My Bounty Awaits).

===Imperialism and Colonization===
The foundation of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] was to seek out the kingdoms of the {{wp|Biblical Magi}} and to unite "all the lands whose kings adored Christ". As such, at least at its genisis, what has been retrospectively termed a ''{{wp|Mission civilisatrice}}'', was the search for co-equal kingdoms with which to join forces in [[Catholic Church|service of Christ]]. The thesis that Balthazar, Melchior, and Gaspar came from Christian kingdoms was flawed from the start and meant that the Papally ordained/funded explorations of the coastal [[Derian identity|Derians]] never found what they were looking for. It did however, lead to a self-righteous bent of Imperialism and settler colonization that spanned [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]] in the 17th, 18th, and early 19th centuries. Exploration and colonization in northern [[Audonia]] was justified under the banner of searching for the kingdom of {{wp|Balthazar (magus)|Balthazar}}, the same for southern [[Audonia]] in search of {{wp|Melchior (magus)|Melchior}}, and same again in [[Alshar]] in search of the kingdom of {{wp|Caspar (magus)|Gaspar}}. This earning for oriental connection remains to this day but has been informed by many other factors beyond this initial concept.

Slavery is recognized as an abhorrent practice, but an integral part of the history of [[Burgundie]]. The contributions of slaves are embraced as part of the foundation of Burgoignesc society. [[History of Burgundie]] is taught to include the ever-present role slavery played in the [[Latin Heroic Age|Latin Heroic]], [[Slavery in Great Levantia|Great Levantine]], and [[Holy Levantine Empire]] periods, falling out of fashion in the 1830s, and being formally being banned in [[1875]]. Furthermore, people whose forebearers were brought to [[Burgundie]] through the practice of slavery are considered equal members of Burgoignesc society and whose freedoms and obligations are the same as every other Burgoigniac.

Slavery does not carry the stigma of "otherness" as slavery was not uniquely practiced toward any one group or ethnicity in particular. Who was enslaved by the denizens of the principalities that makeup [[Burgundie]] was based purely on ease of access. In the [[Latin Heroic Age]], throughout the reign of [[Great Levantia]], and the majority of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] period, [[Occidental]] slaves were taken from neighboring principalities, northern [[Levantia]], and the [[Sarepdon]]ian coast of the [[Sea of Istroya]]. As maritime technology improved and these areas centralized and became difficult to raid, [[Bergendii]] slavers looked further afield. In the middle [[Holy Levantine Empire]] period, [[Bergendii]] slavers took over the existing chattel networks as the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] collapsed. They used their [[Pharisedom|pharisedoms]] as slaving hubs and as slave markets and enslaved around 10 million people of [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]] origin and transported them all over the world in the 17th, 18th, and early 19th century. However, this was merely one part of a global slave market reticulum that started a global decline in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Stigmatizing slavery and therefore ignoring the role it played in the development of the societies it help build, and sidelining the descendants of slavery is considered a stupid thing done by libtards and conservacucks alike.

===Induced Abortion===
===Induced Abortion===
Becoming legal in the 1950s as a result of the Burgoignesc Women’s Liberation movement, induced abortion has faded from general discourse because of its wide acceptance and vast popular support. Access is guaranteed by law and is available at most hospitals that provide maternal-fetal medicine. The [[Catholic Church]] has taken their protests to the pulpit but by the 1980s had lost steam even there as parishioners turned away from the church starting in the 1970s, many young women citing the Churches stance on induced abortion as a reason. In the depths of [[Roln]] and [[Daltmur]] induced abortion is still socially taboo and is least likely to be practiced. These two areas also have the highest levels of unintended pregnancy, death or impairment of the mother and or child due to birthing complications, unmarried motherhood, parents without college degrees, lowest average income, highest gender pay gaps, and lowest levels of savings in [[Burgundie]]. These statistics are often cited as examples of why de-stigmatizing abortion remains important.

The government of [[Burgundie]] does not specify when in the gestation process a fetus becomes a person. The medical community has determined that they will not usually conduct abortions after the conclusion of the second trimester out of consideration of the health of the mother. Due to the flexibility of the law, extreme circumstances may warrant an abortion at any time, even in the third trimester.
