Geography of Burgundie
The Burgoignesc Thalassocracy is a nation spread across the world with its capital and majority landmass, known as the Burgoignesc Metropole, on the southeastern coast of Levantia.
The Burgoignesc Metropole is situated in the northern and eastern hemispheres. At its northernmost point the Metropole spans from 30° 15' 25" (30.2571°) north latitude in Levantx to 6° 54' 0" (6.9000°) north latitude at its southern most point in Faramount on the border with Urcea. At its westernmost point the Metropole's province of Esquinia reaches 17° 5' 56.4" (17.099 °) east longitude to 29° 40' 40.8" (29.678°) east longitude where Levantx also represents its easternmost reach. The Metropole has a total area of 1,687,869.35 sqkm (651,690 sqmi). It measures 8770.92km (5,450 mi) from north to south and 9446.84km (5,870 mi) east to west but the majority of that is the confluence of the Levantine Ocean the Sea of Istroya. It has a land frontier of 13,244.9 km (8,230 mi) and a coastline of 47,008.93 km (29,210 mi).
The coast of the Burgoignesc Metropole meets the Sea of Istroya on its southern half and the Levantine Ocean in the northern half. The Isle of Burgundie is separated from the mainland by the Alavarian Channel, the island of Drusla is separated by the Ashraphon Strait. The northeastern provinces of Marves and Marialanus border on the Gulf of Philanthia. The island of Levantx is entirely bound by the Levantine Ocean.
Climate
Spanning the climate classifications of Tropical Wet, Tropical Wet/Dry, Semiarid, Humid Subtropical, Subarctic, Tundra, and Ice Cap the Burgoignesc Thalassocrasy has a megadiverse climate. The thalassocracy is often divided into continental groups to group these classifications to describable groupings. These climatological divisions are the Burgoignesc Metrolpole, Audonio-Alshari Burgundie, Equatorial Osteicia, and the Polar Burgundies.
Burgoignesc Metropole
The Burgoignesc Metropole, also known as Levantine Burgundie, encompasses the nation of Burgundie and the Commonwealth Trade Island of Levantx. In its southern most tip it has a Tropical Wet climate zone which becomes a Tropical Wet/Dry climate zone as it moves north into the hinterlands. Moving along the coast to the northeast the area is entirely Humid Subtropical climate zone including Levantx.
The Tropical Wet climate zone exists along the south coast of Faramount where it extends into Urcea and some of the fringe southern coast of Drusla. They have very little annual temperature variation with a yearly average temperature is between 21°C to 30°C (70°F to 85°F). The annual precipitation is between 2000 to 2800 mm (79 - 110 in). The driest months are October and November have less than 200 mm (7.9 in) of rainfall.
The Tropical Wet/Dry climate zone covers western Faramount, western Burdeboch, the majority of Cashen, all of Esquinia, and the northwest of Daltmur. In summer, the temperature is between 15°C - 30°C (59°F to 86°F), while in winter the temperature is between 10°C - 25°C (50°F to 77°F). The annual precipitation is between 700 to 1000 mm (27.5- 39 in). The driest months are from November to March and they have less than 60 mm (2.3 in) of rainfall.
The Humid Subtropical climate zone covers northeastern Faramount, the island of Drusla, eastern Burdeboch, Cashen along its extreme eastern border, southern Daltmur, and all of the provinces of Argenbagne, Roln, Bonavix, Eagaria, Martilles, Pumbria, Estia, Marves, Marialanus, the Isle of Burgundie, and Levantx. In summer, the temperature is between 14°C and 29°C (57.2°F and 84.2°F), while in winter the temperature is between 2°C and 14°C (35.6°F and 57.2°F). The annual precipitation is between 1,145.54 to 29,100 mm (45.5 to 145.5 in). The driest months are from November and December and they have less than 127 mm (5 in) of rainfall.

Physical Geography of Burgundie
Because of its disparate locations, the Burgoignesc Thalassocrasy has many different forms of geography. The thalassocracy is often divided into continental groups to group these classifications to describable groupings. These climatological divisions are the Burgoignesc Metrolpole, Audonio-Alshari Burgundie, Equatorial Osteicia, Polar Burgundies.
