The early 20th century in Bulkh saw the rapid adoption of [[Occidental]] memes such as industrialism, capitalism, urbanization, but development has been uneven, mostly occurring in its coastal regions. Following the [[First Great War]], and especially after the [[Second Great War]], Bulkh was rapidly increased its adoption of secularism, and democracy and its cultural and economic ties with [[Burgundie]]. The nation signed a constitution in [[1906]] and became a secular republic. This government set about a series of invasive modernization policies that were not popular, but any resistance was quashed by a corrupt but loyal police force and army. During the [[Second Great War]] [[Burgundie]] and Bulkh were allied against the anti-colonial powers of [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]] and this arrangement made the government and elite incredibly rich. | |||
