Alcairet is a [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] [[Government_of_Burgundie#Provincial_and_Colonial_Government|province]] in confluence of the [[Barbary Straits]] and the [[Sea of Istroya]], in [[Audonia]]. It is considered part of [[La Garrote]]. Historically Alcairet was a middle power of the [[Istroyan civilization]] in antiquity. It is considered the last vestige of the [[Istroyan civilization]] until it was conquered by the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] in the 7th century AD. It remained under [[Oduniyyad Caliphate|Oduniyyad]] control until the fall of that empire in [[1514]] when it was left to its own devices until the [[Truffle Races]] between the coastal states of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] ([[Burgundie]]) and [[Caphiria]] led to its annexation by [[Burgoignesc Kandahar-Kandara Trading Company]] in [[1577]]. It was administered as part of the [[Battganuur#Colonization|Barbary Straits Colony]] from [[1577]]-[[1836]] when the mainland was lost, then given provincial status in [[1875]] when the unified nation of [[Burgundie]] was formed. | Alcairet is a [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] [[Government_of_Burgundie#Provincial_and_Colonial_Government|province]] in confluence of the [[Barbary Straits]] and the [[Sea of Istroya]], in [[Audonia]].

Alcairet is an island in the western mouth of the [[Barbary Straits]]. The islands are the remains of a land bridge that used to connect the southwestern and northern continental islands of [[Alshar]]. At the end of the last ice age when sea levels rose, the lowlands flooded and formed the [[Barbary Straits]]. | Alcairet is an island in the western mouth of the [[Barbary Straits]].
