Following the establishment of a distinct concept as a Derian nation, inevitable controversies ensued over who would be included in such a people. The term "the Two Derics" refers to two identically named but separate (though related) debates occurring in the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] in the 19th century regarding the issue of Derian identity as it related to ethnic minorities within the Kingdom, particularly the residents of what would become [[Burgundie]].

The disputes largely fought between intellectuals and scholars of the [[Bergendii]] people and ''CORE DERICS''. The debate on the Two Derics would be the seminal event of Derian identity during the 19th century and would lay the groundwork for the [[Second Great War]] in [[Levantia]] as well as the future decline of Derianism. | ||
The first debate occurred within the Deric Awakening during and following the Deric defeat in the and considered the question of whether or not the [[Bergendii]] were considered to be part of the Derian people and, accordingly, if they had a role in any "Derian state" to be formed in the future. During this debate, the "maximalist position" - that is, that they ought to be included - was prevalent among most prominent Derian nationalist but was not popular among the [[Bergendii]] themselves. The Maximalist position espoused the idea of "Great Dericania", which included not only ''CORE DERICS'' and ''CORE DERICS'' and the [[Bergendii]] but also the people of [[Hollona and Diorisia]] and [[Lutsana]]. The first debate came to a head with [[First_Fratricide#Le_Crise_della_Dix|''Le Crise della Dix'']], a political crisis following the [[Third Caroline War]] wherein [[Bergendii]] were expected to surrender land to fellow Derian princes in the name of national solidarity. The resulting [[First Fratricide]] established an independent Bergendii nation, [[Burgundie]]. Latent [[Burgophobia]] proved to be a strong unifying force which enabled the Derian national project to come to encompass [[Lutsana]] and [[Hollona and Diorisia]]. | The first debate occurred within the Deric Awakening during and following the Deric defeat in the and considered the question of whether or not the [[Bergendii]] were considered to be part of the Derian people and, accordingly, if they had a role in any "Derian state" to be formed in the future.

The second debate occurred from the 1890s to the 1920s and concerned the construction of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]], which was now largely dominated by [[Burgundie]] and an opposing bloc of Derian princes. The second debate specifically related to whether or not [[Burgundie]] should be a part of Dericania at all or if a united Derian realm could be created out of the Kingdom by separating [[Burgundie]], either by elevating the latter to a Kingdom, making it a nominal part of the [[Imperial Kingdom of Urcea]], by divesting the [[Emperor of the Levantines]] of the Dericanian crown in order to create a single realm, or some combination of the above options. This primarily legal and political debate was not resolved until the [[Second Great War]] and dominated the political discourse of the day in both the Derian realms and [[Burgundie]], leading to the abdication of [[List_of_Emperors_of_the_Levantines#Marius_Dynasty|Emperor August I]] in 1920 among other incidents. | The second debate occurred from the 1890s to the 1920s and concerned the construction of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]], which was now largely dominated by [[Burgundie]] and an opposing bloc of Derian princes.
