The wars of [[Operation Kipling]] formed the modern Equatorial Ostiecia. It was used as a forward operating base for the various general staffs and as a forward manufacturing and logistical hub. The logistical infrastructure that criss-crosses the country were laid down or expanded during the course of the wars in [[Alshar]] and [[Audonia]]. It is also why most of the infrastructure favors the western sides of the islands. The raw materials coming from the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]] were smaller and easier to disembark in the older ports and rail hubs in the eastern shores of Equatorial Ostiecia. As the products were assembled they became larger and more complex and by the time they were completed and ready to send to the war zones they required larger and more complex logistical chains. This has led to more rail and shipyards in the western portions of the country and more airfields as well.

After the conclusion of [[Operation Kipling]] the [[Security Forces of Burgundie]] sold off much of the manufacturing and logistical assets it had built/subsidized to private firms who were immediately take ownership and turn a profit. This lead to a huge economic boom that lasted from about [[1987]]-[[1995]]. It waned with the advent of the global adaptation of the internet but a few companies were forward thinking and invested heavily in the adoption of the new technology. The shipping company wars of the mid 90s ravaged large swathes of the economy to the point were the national government of [[Burgundie]] stepped in and mediated a peace and what had once been a patchwork of 100s of smaller owner/operator logistical concerns was reduced down to three large logistical companies to provide stability, maintain competition, and standardize the infrastructure to international standards.

This infrastructure standardization led to a construction and network system development boom that led the economy for approximately 15 years from [[1998]]-[[2013]]. While construction and infrastructure maintenance is still a strong aspect of the economy, it is a mere shadow of itself in the early 2000s. Bringing all of the micro systems online or into a centralized corporate database meant that an entire sector needed to be stood up overnight. This also means that government-owned internet infrastructure was pervasive across all of Equatorial Ostiecia with fiber optic internet being standard and 4 and 5G towers covering 97% of the countries population.
