Throughout the {{wpl|Age of Discovery}} and the {{wpl|Age of Sail}} the coastal Duchies of [[History_of_Dericania#Duchy_of_Marialanus|Marialanus]], [[History_of_Dericania#Duchy_of_Martilles|Martilles]], and [[History_of_Dericania#Duchy_of_Bourgondi|Bourgondi]], of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]], developed colonial empires of various sizes through trading companies. This was precipitated by the [[Expulsion of the Protestants]] from southern [[Levantia]] following their loss in the [[Great Confessional War]]. Many of those protestants were processed off-continent through [[Burgundie]] who turned them into a massive global exploration and {{wpl|settler colonialism|colonizing}} force, known as [[Pharisedom]]s. | |||
There were also some [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] {{wpl|Colonia (Roman)|coloniae}} (e.g. [[Veraise]] and Islevenin) but it was not as common. | |||
==Sociology== | |||
The genesis of [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] [[Culture_in_Burgundie#Imperialism_and_Colonization|colonial culture]] was to seek out the kingdoms of the {{wpl|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 ''{{wpl|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 {{wpl|Balthazar (magus)|Balthazar}}, the same for southern [[Audonia]] in search of {{wpl|Melchior (magus)|Melchior}}, and same again in [[Alshar]] in search of the kingdom of {{wpl|Caspar (magus)|Gaspar}}. This yearning for oriental connection remains to this day but has been informed by many other factors beyond this initial concept. | |||
This is also retrospectively used to describe [[Burgundie]]'s general lack of interest in the colonization of [[Crona]]. | |||
==Tenents of Burgoignesc Colonial Rule== | |||
===Early/Establishment Period Trends=== | |||
*[[1598]]-[[1635]] | |||
*Emporia, minor ports and forts | |||
*[[Kiravia]] has made first contact in lots of places so Burg is vying for local access, gets ahead because they re-empower local magistrates from the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] with whom they had trading contacts before the Caliphate collapsed. | |||
*Burgs more open and accepting of foreign cultures and hierarchies as a way to curry favor | |||
*The colonies are still reliant on the metropole for sustainability | |||
*Examples: | |||
**[[Kandara#"Western"_contact_(16th_century)]] | |||
**[[Pukhgundi#Colonization]] | |||
**[[Eloillette]] | |||
**[[Rusana#Levantine_Exploration]] and [[Cheun#Early_Modern_Period]] | |||
**[[Battganuur#Colonization]] | |||
**[[Bulkh#Colonization]] | |||
**[[United_Audonian_Emirates#Levantine_era]] | |||
===Self Sufficiency Period Trends=== | |||
*[[1635]]-[[1693]] | |||
*As the generation of ex-[[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] magistrates age out/die Burgs take more direct control of politics, land management, and resource extraction but its still very decentralized, mostly up to the patroons | |||
*{{wp|Patroon}}ships, {{wp|Latifundia}}/{{wp|Plantation}}s, {{wp|Colonia (Roman)}} | |||
*Slavery becomes the primary financial function of the colonies | |||
*Massive influx of Levantine Protestants sees rabid expansion of the initial coastal colonies to accommodate promises of land grants | |||
*Colonial militias are the primary defense for the colonies against other native peoples on the frontiers | |||
*Examples: | |||
**[[Kandara#Kandoori-Fana_wars_and_slaving]] | |||
**[[Oyashima#Colonization]] | |||
**[[Pukhgundi#Company_rule]] | |||
**[[Eloillette#Silver_Mining]] | |||
**[[Rusana#Levantine_Exploration]] and [[Cheun#Early_Modern_Period]] | |||
**[[Battganuur#Colonization]] | |||
**[[Bulkh#Company_rule]] | |||
**[[United_Audonian_Emirates#Levantine_era]] | |||
**[[Yanuban#Colonization]] | |||
===Dominance Period Trends=== | |||
*[[1693]]-[[1785]] | |||
*Trading companies take more direct control and organize colonial administrations, later presidencies that are much more efficient | |||
*Due to the influx of Protestants and slavery some colonies become majority Bergendii | |||
*Colonial militias take a back seat to large majority native regiments under the direct control of the trade companies who take on entire nations of peoples and drastically expand the colonies | |||
*Policy of Colonial Latitude, a policy by the [[Duchy of Burgoundi]] and the [[Duchy of Martilles]] that allowed independent actors to act on their behalf. | |||
*Examples: | |||
**[[Oyashima#Company_rule]] | |||
**[[Pukhgundi#Company_rule]] | |||
**[[Eloillette#Rise_of_the_Slave_Trade]] | |||
**[[Rusana#Levantine_Exploration]] and [[Cheun#Early_Modern_Period]] | |||
**[[Battganuur#Colonization]] | |||
**[[Bulkh#Company_rule]] | |||
**[[Farmandie#Early_colonisation_(1700-1742)]] | |||
**[[United_Audonian_Emirates#Levantine_era]] | |||
**[[Yanuban#Company_rule]] | |||
===Late Period/Colonial Loss Trends=== | |||
*[[1785]]-[[1848]] | |||
*Trade companies get rich and corrupt more focused on prestige then efficient colonial administration | |||
*Colonies are unmanageably large and corrupt administrators refuse to break them up into more manageable and efficient sizes | |||
*High taxes and tarriffs on occidental settlers make colonial administration unpopular with its core | |||
*Native military units mutinying as traditions and customs are crossed by uncaring and out of touch colonial military leaders | |||
*Great Rebellion of Slavery Bay spreads across many core colonies and starts a mass exodus of settlers that exacerbates all of the afformenttioned issues and creates an unprecedented refugee crisis | |||
*Poor leadership both in the colonies and the Metropole leads to the defeat of most all of the mainland settler colonies leaving only some scattered islands | |||
*Examples: | |||
**[[Kandara#Great_Rebellion_of_Slavery_Bay]] | |||
**[[Oyashima#Late_modern_era]] | |||
**[[Pukhgundi#Great_Rebellion_of_Slavery_Bay]] | |||

Throughout the Age of Discovery and the Age of Sail the coastal Duchies of Marialanus, Martilles, and Bourgondi, of the Kingdom of Dericania, developed colonial empires of various sizes through trading companies. This was precipitated by the Expulsion of the Protestants from southern Levantia following their loss in the Great Confessional War. Many of those protestants were processed off-continent through Burgundie who turned them into a massive global exploration and colonizing force, known as Pharisedoms.
There were also some Catholic coloniae (e.g. Veraise and Islevenin) but it was not as common.
Sociology
The genesis of Burgoignesc colonial culture was to seek out the kingdoms of the 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 Mission civilisatrice, was the search for co-equal kingdoms with which to join forces in 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 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 Balthazar, the same for southern Audonia in search of Melchior, and same again in Alshar in search of the kingdom of Gaspar. This yearning for oriental connection remains to this day but has been informed by many other factors beyond this initial concept.
This is also retrospectively used to describe Burgundie's general lack of interest in the colonization of Crona.
Tenents of Burgoignesc Colonial Rule
Early/Establishment Period Trends
- 1598-1635
- Emporia, minor ports and forts
- Kiravia has made first contact in lots of places so Burg is vying for local access, gets ahead because they re-empower local magistrates from the Oduniyyad Caliphate with whom they had trading contacts before the Caliphate collapsed.
- Burgs more open and accepting of foreign cultures and hierarchies as a way to curry favor
- The colonies are still reliant on the metropole for sustainability
- Examples:
Self Sufficiency Period Trends
- 1635-1693
- As the generation of ex-Oduniyyad Caliphate magistrates age out/die Burgs take more direct control of politics, land management, and resource extraction but its still very decentralized, mostly up to the patroons
- Patroonships, Latifundia/Plantations, Colonia (Roman)
- Slavery becomes the primary financial function of the colonies
- Massive influx of Levantine Protestants sees rabid expansion of the initial coastal colonies to accommodate promises of land grants
- Colonial militias are the primary defense for the colonies against other native peoples on the frontiers
- Examples:
Dominance Period Trends
- 1693-1785
- Trading companies take more direct control and organize colonial administrations, later presidencies that are much more efficient
- Due to the influx of Protestants and slavery some colonies become majority Bergendii
- Colonial militias take a back seat to large majority native regiments under the direct control of the trade companies who take on entire nations of peoples and drastically expand the colonies
- Policy of Colonial Latitude, a policy by the Duchy of Burgoundi and the Duchy of Martilles that allowed independent actors to act on their behalf.
- Examples:
Late Period/Colonial Loss Trends
- 1785-1848
- Trade companies get rich and corrupt more focused on prestige then efficient colonial administration
- Colonies are unmanageably large and corrupt administrators refuse to break them up into more manageable and efficient sizes
- High taxes and tarriffs on occidental settlers make colonial administration unpopular with its core
- Native military units mutinying as traditions and customs are crossed by uncaring and out of touch colonial military leaders
- Great Rebellion of Slavery Bay spreads across many core colonies and starts a mass exodus of settlers that exacerbates all of the afformenttioned issues and creates an unprecedented refugee crisis
- Poor leadership both in the colonies and the Metropole leads to the defeat of most all of the mainland settler colonies leaving only some scattered islands
