Burgundie is a founding member of the League of Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, World Health Organization, World Trade Organization, International Maritime Organization, World Food Program, International Red Cross, and other international organizations]]. Burgundie is a highly developed country, with a GDP of $19.1 trillion and a GDPPC of $50,170. It accounts for approximately a 47% of the world’s maritime shipping traffic which has made the country rich. However, since it lacks a diverse native manufacturing base it is susceptible to fluctuations in the global markets. The economy is largely {{wpl|post-industrial}}, characterized by the dominance of services and knowledge-based activities, although the nation's shipyards keep the manufacturing sector world class. Burgundie is the world's largest importer operating on a massive trade deficit that it offsets with its taxes on the shipping industry as well an aggressive international loan policy. Burgundie ranks among the highest nations in several measures of socioeconomic performance, including average wage, human development, per capita GDP, and productivity per person. Burgundie has a sizable [[Burgundian Security Forces|military power]] in the world and is a preeminent political, cultural, and scientific force giving it significant power projection both in real and soft terms.

Being formally recognized in its current form in [[1875]], Burgundie, as a unified nation, is relatively new. Levantine Burgundie was inhabited by Celtic peoples known as the {{wpl|Picts|Impaxi}} starting around 2800 BC. In the 500s BC the seafaring [[Adonerii civilization]] arrived along the southern coast of [[Levantia]]. In [[158]] AD the [[Latinic]] commander Julian Marcilius Corvus crushed native resistance on the [[Isle of Burgundie]], then called Ipar, and established the Bergenddium, a state that lasted until it was broken up in the 1090s. Following the [[Great Confessional War]] the Burgoignesc, Estienne, and Martillian trading companies created massive overseas empires, free from the confines of [[Holy Levantine Empire|Imperial]] rule. The greatest of these empires, the Burgoignesc South Levantive Trading Company started to collapse in on itself from overextension in the 1780s. Around the same time, the enlightenment and scientific revolution and then later the industrial revolution led to a series of anti-monarchist and pro-democratic/social revolts across the southern coast of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]]. The reactionary powers attempted to crush these revolts and led to the [[First Fratricide]], which mediatized much of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] and formed Burgundie from a number of the southern coastal principalities. The new nation set about a course of standardization, driven by scientists, industrialists, and new governments wanted to be considered a modern nation. By the early 20th century Burgundie was becoming as powerful in continental politics as the whole of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]], in its own right. During the [[Great War]] [[Burgundie]] fought on the side of the Western Coalition, bringing it into the global spotlight. It was one of the powers, along with its ally [[Urcea]] that fought on all fronts of the [[Great War]]. After the end of the [[Great War]] Burgundie helped to establish many of the new globalist institutions that cropped up in that era. Burgundie did this as part of its self determined new mission and duty, as it sought ot find a place for itself in the post-Great War world. Burgundie set out to protect the liberties and freedoms it held dear, for all peoples around the world. This Occidental view of what the basic human rights were and its role in upholding them led to a series of [[Operation Kipling|anti-communist wars]] in [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]]. This cotributed to and coincided with an urban and cultural revolution across the Thalassocracy that changed the country from a moderately authoritarian and reactionary holdover from the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] to a modern liberal {{wpl|Crowned republic}}. and the advent of {{wpl|Containerization}} both of which brought Burgundie into the 21st century at full tilt.
