Late modern period
As the Burgoignesc Colonial Empire collapsed in the early 1800s a massive influx of Bergendii colonists from Alshar and Audonia sought refuge. As they had been dismissed from Levantine for being Protestant in the first place, they were not welcomed back to the Burgoignesc Metropole.
They were rerouted, enmasse to Equitorial Ostiecia were the population exploded from about 27,000 Occidentals in 1800 to about 450,000 by the 1850s. The colony saw an explosive period of urbanization and industrialization of farming to accommodate the seemingly endless tidal wave of people.
Because this was occuring during the industrial revolution there was period during the First Fratricide where Equitorial Ostiecia was more advanced than the Burgoignesc Metropole. Because the colony wants bound up in medieval infrastructure and political baggage it was able to adopt new ideas and technologies immediately.
This is also the period when the primacy of property rights, self-reliance, embracing innovation, and a frontier mentality took hold in Equitorial Ostiecia that still permeates it's culture today. The concepts of Equitorioise ingenuity and Equitorioise stoicism were born of this period.
