XII Corps (Urcea): Difference between revisions

XII Corps has served as an important common source of pride between the peoples of [[Urcea]] and [[Burgundie]]. Their service in defense of Burgundie during the [[Second Great War]] has been cited by many cultural observers as thawing long-term resentments between the two countries held since the 19th century [[Recess of the Julii]]. Many of these same observers believe that the "very public sacrifice" of Urcean soldiers in defense of Burgundie from their long-time enemy, the [[Derian identity|Derian people]], changed the minds of the Burgoignesc public towards Urcea, and established the groundwork for the [[Urcea-Burgundie relations|special relationship]] enjoyed by both nations today.  

The [[Corps Column (Urceopolis)|Corps Column]] in [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] was constructed by the government of Burgundie after the Second Great War as recognition of the Corps' service. It remains the most prominent cultural object in Urceopolis with a [[Burgoignesc language]] inscription on it, and is a popular site for Burgoignesc tourists.
