===Slavery=== | |||
Slavery is recognized as an abhorrent practice, but an integral part of the history of [[Burgundie]]. The contributions of slaves are embraced as part of the foundation of Burgoignesc society. [[History of Burgundie]] is taught to include the ever-present role slavery played in the [[Latin Heroic Age|Latin Heroic]], [[Great Levantia|Great Levantine]], and [[Holy Levantine Empire]] periods, falling out of fashing in the 1830s, and being formally being banned in [[1875]]. Furthermore, people whose forebearers were brought to [[Burgundie]] through the practice of slavery are considered equal members of Burgoignesc society and whose freedoms and obligations are the same as every other Burgoigniac. | |||
Slavery does not carry the stigma of "otherness" as slavery was not uniquely practiced toward any one group or ethnicity in particular. Who was enslaved by the denizens of the principalities that makeup [[Burgundie]] was based purely on ease of access. In the [[Latin Heroic Age]], throughout the reign of [[Great Levantia]], and the majority of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] period, [[Occidental]] slaves were taken from neighboring principalities, northern [[Levantia]], and the [[Sarepdon]]ian coast of the [[Sea of Istroya]]. As maritime technology improved and these areas centralized and became difficult to raid, [[Bergendii]] slavers looked further afield. In the middle [[Holy Levantine Empire]] period, [[Bergendii]] slavers took over the existing chattel networks as the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] collapsed. They used their [[Pharisedom|pharisedoms]] as slaving hubs and as slave markets and enslaved around 10 million people of [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]] origin and transported them all over the world in the 17th, 18th, and early 19th century. However, this was merely one part of a global slave market reticulum that started a global decline in the 18th and 19th centuries. | |||
Stigmatizing slavery and therefore ignoring the role it played in the development of the societies it help build, and sidelining the descendants of slavery is considered a stupid thing done by libtards and conservacucks alike. | |||

=Race relations= | |||
Race in [[Burgundie]] is based on ethno-culutral characteristics and has played an essential part in shaping [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] society even before the nation's conception. Until the pan-enfranchisement movement of the 1950s, racial minorities in [[Burgundie]] faced institutionalized discrimination and both social and economic marginalization. Today the [[Government of Burgundie]] recognizes four races, [[Occidental]], [[Audonia|Oduniyyad]], [[Alshar]]i, and [[Crona]]n. | |||
