The capital of Burgundie is [[Vilauristre]], located on the [[Ile Burgundie]], which is also the capital country, located just off the coast of southeastern [[Levantia]] across the [[Geography of Burgundie#Alavarian Strait|L'Estrech Alavarienne]]. The country of [[Nostrestran]] is located along the southeastern coast of [[Levantia]] bound by the [[Sea of Istroya]] in the east, the [[Deric States]] in the north and west, and the Burgoignesc country of [[Faramount]] to the south.

Burgundie uses [[Track gauges around the world|Standard gauge]], 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) as most of its rail infrastructure has been under the auspices of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] and the [[Levantine Union]], who all use that rail gauge. It has propagated this into a global standard across the [[Burgoignesc thalattocracy]]. | |||

During the 17th and 18th century, due to the technological explosion of the {{wpl|Renaissance|Late Renaissance}}, later {{wpl|Enlightenment}}, and its resulting [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire|colonial empire]], Burgundie had a preeminent role in the global economy, accounting for 5.1% of the world's GDP in [[1770]]. The loss of much of its [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire|colonial empire]], lagging behind in the adoption of industrialization in the 19th century, and the cost of fighting both the [[First Great War|First]] and [[Second Great War]]s as well as [[Operation Kipling]] further weakened Burgundie's relative position in the 20th century. Despite a relative decline in its global dominance, in the 21st century Burgundie retains the ability to project significant power and influence around the world. | During the 17th and 18th century, due to the technological explosion of the {{wpl|Renaissance|Late Renaissance}}, later {{wpl|Enlightenment}}, and its resulting [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire|colonial empire]], Burgundie had a preeminent role in the global economy, accounting for 5.1% of the world's GDP in [[1770]].

Culturally, Burgundie is one of the least vernacular and most mechanical nations in the world. This means that there is a level of homongony across the diverse and vast [[Burgoignesc Thalattocracy|thalattocracy]]. This is an accidental side effect of the centralized, planned mechanization put forward by the various royal institutions since the [[First Fratricide]], but especially since the [[Second Great War]]. These mechanization efforts, namely in the wide spread use of air conditioning, mass transit, and subsidized domestic migration have allowed the Burgoigniacs to live anywhere in the world under the same conditions as they would on the [[Ile Burgundie]]. | |||
Many international sociologists term this ''Laissez-faire Vilauristrification'' in reference to the fact that the phenomenon was accidental and that the Burgoignesc cultural experience is becoming more like that of the capital in [[Vilauristre]]. This has been more noticeable in the Burgoignesc territories outside of the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]], as [[Levantia|Levantine]] Burgoignesc culture is the core that many other vernacular cultures within the [[Burgoignesc Thalattocracy|thalattocracy]] are being pulled towards. Outside of Burgundie, this has been observed across southern [[Audonia]] and western [[Alshar]]. Many in these areas see Burgundie as the paragon of modernization and progress and thus have adopted many of the mechanizations that have led to this shift in Burgundie. | |||
However, over the last 50 years [[Equatorial Ostiecia]] has come be the [[Culture in Burgundie|cultural]] and [[Economy of Burgundie|economic]] center of Burgundie, in essence, creating a foil to the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]]. | |||
