Equatorial Ostiecia is a large constituent country of [[Burgundie]] located on the northern end of [[Vallos]], at the confluences of the [[Odoneru Ocean]], [[St. Brendan's Strait]], the [[Taínean Sea]], and the [[Polynesian Sea]]. It is bordered but [[Vespera]], a province of [[Caphiria]] in the southeast, [[Arona]] a province of [[Urcea]] in the southwest, and shares a maritime border with [[Eilada]] an island province of [[Faneria]] in the northeast. Its province of [[Equatorial Ostiecia#Flordeterra|Flordeterra]] is in the [[Vallos]]ian region of [[Vallos#Nordercia|Nordercia]] and it's island provinces span the southern half of the [[Vallos#Capelranco_Archipelago|Capelranco Archipelago]]. | Equatorial Ostiecia is a large constituent country of [[Burgundie]] located on the northern end of [[Vallos]], at the confluences of the [[Odoneru Ocean]], [[St. Brendan's Strait]], the [[Taínean Sea]], and the [[Polynesian Sea]].

Equatorial Ostiecia is predominantly {{wpl|Calvinism|Mercantile Reform Protestant}}. The country upholds religious freedoms and there is a diversity of religions and other Christian Rites making up 34% of the population. The country is demographically diverse, with 64% of its population being "of [[Occidental]] descent" (of which 58% identify as [[Bergendii]]), 13% identify as "of Polynesian descent", 8% identify as "of indigenous [[Crona]]n descent", 7% identify as "of [[Audonia|Oduniyyad]] descent", 5% identify as "of [[Alshar]]i descent", and 3% identify as "of other origin" (it is suspected that they are mostly [[Coscivian civilisation|Coscivians]]). The majority of the people live in urbanized coastal areas, have exceedingly high rates of academic attainment, and work in the services sector. | ||
Economically Equitorial Ostecia is led by its logistics/operations management. It also boasts a large manufacturing sector but this is largely automated so it does not account for a large portion of employment. Retail and the public sector follow manufacturing as economic drivers, they tend to be lower paying but they employ millions of Equitorioise. There is a niche agricultural sector that mostly focuses on cash crops like tea, coffee, sugarcane, cotton, and citrus. There is an even smaller livestock element of the economy with cattle and chickens being the two most commonly raised animals. | Economically Equitorial Ostecia is led by its logistics/operations management.

Prevailing wind patterns interact with local topographic conditions to produce significant variations in rainfall throughout the archipelago. In general, the islands of Equatorial Ostiecia experience the most precipitation, since the north- and westward-moving monsoon clouds are heavy with moisture by the time they reach these more distant regions, with rainfall measuring more than 2,000 millimeters (78.7 in) per year. In part, this moisture originates on high mountain peaks that trap damp air. On the other hand, Floredeterra tends to be dry, with some areas experiencing less than 1,000 millimeters (39.4 in) per year. | Prevailing wind patterns interact with local topographic conditions to produce significant variations in rainfall throughout the archipelago.

Humans settled Vallos at some time around 12,000 BC according to archaeological evidence, a relatively late date of settlement for most parts of the [[Occident]]. The earliest settlers exhibited a relatively similar {{wp|material culture}} to contemporary residents of what would become Pelaxia, suggesting a westward migration at that time. The Neolithic revolution occurred on Vallos to a limited extent, as large urban cities did not develop, but farming of local grasses and other flora made settled farm life viable. About forty percent of people in Vallos adopted agricultural lifestyles by 2000 BC. Society continued to develop, with indigenous prehistoric reaching its apex with the shark pottery culture, a material culture so named for the use of both shark teeth and bones as a crafting material in addition to the use of shark-related motifs on pottery. The shark pottery culture reached its peak around 1800 BC, just prior to the arrival of the first [[Heaven Ships]] and later arrival of the [[Polynesian people|Polynesians]]. Archaeologists have uncovered several urban centers of around a thousand people all along the eastern coast of Vallos which were likely fishing centers and the source of shark material. Shark pottery culture continued its existence following the arrivals of foreign culture groups, although archaeologists classify much of it as "late shark pottery" due to the introduction of foreign innovations. | Humans settled Vallos at some time around 12,000 BC according to archaeological evidence, a relatively late date of settlement for most parts of the [[Occident]].

The collapse of Caphiric hegemony over Vallos in [[1172]] inaugurated a second chaotic period of warfare that would last for over two hundred years. Centuries of raiding had led to economic deprivation in some quarters of Vallos and significant dynastic hatred between nearly all of the eleven kings. The worst part of the warring states period came during its initial century, which saw five different royal dynasties completely exterminated and most of the eleven kingdoms disintegrate into regional factions. | The collapse of Caphiric hegemony over Vallos in [[1172]] inaugurated a second chaotic period of warfare that would last for over two hundred years.

| | The rise of [[Occidental]] oceanic trade presented a number of opportunities for the petty kings of [[Vallos]], especially in the wake of [[Aster's expedition]] which introduced trade to [[Crona]] from [[Sarpedon]]. Centuries of war had created significant hardship and lack of opportunity for additional plunder in the form of tribute, but the increasing volume of trade centered near [[Vallos]] by the decade caught the eye of both local authorities as well as enterprising individuals. Beginning in around [[1450]], petty kings began to sponsor public privateering of trade ships in [[St. Brendan's Strait]]. Besides the negative impact on overall trade, the sudden influx of wealth back into [[Vallos]], the piracy produced had a profound impact on its politics. In many different cases, privateers had become significantly wealthier than their local ruler, and they used these funds to take over the port they lived in and eventually neighboring settlements. By [[1500]], most of the northern third of [[Vallos]] had become "piratocracies" - realms created by force by wealthy privateers. These states would transform into efficient machines of piracy, as the state apparatus and military continued to grow in support of piracy. This process grew exponentially as [[Culture of Varshan#Slavery|Varshan]] opened its doors to [[Vallos]]i slave traders in [[1579]], making it so that not only the cargo, but the crew, of captured ships were of high value. As they raided the high seas, the piratocracies also consolidated northern [[Vallos]] from more than two dozen petty kingdoms into just three large Kingdoms who actively competed for the right to raid and plunder. The most prominent of these realms was the Kingdom of [[Oustec]], established in the northern archipelago in [[1566]] by the conquest of one privateer of the outlying insular territories of another. Oustec, the privateer-turned-King, would later unify the northern [[Vallos#Capelranco_Archipelago|Capelranco Archipelago]] and push on to mainland [[Vallos]], with his successors establishing the southern boundary of the Kingdom in modern [[Arona]] in [[1598]]. The Kingdom of Oustec would go on to be the primary rival of encroaching [[Occidental]] powers for the next centuries. | ||

Its port facilities started to expand as a result and its population grew as some colonists and traders decided to stay. As the Burgoignesc fleet prepared to winter in November they were attacked by a coalition of the pirate kings and [[Portilles]] was razed. Many of the ships of the Company were destroyed or captured.

Portilles was rebuilt, and the first order of business was to change the composition of the fleet.

The '''Odurian War''' was a conflict in [[Vallos]] that led to the final partition of the [[ | The '''Odurian War''' was a conflict in [[Vallos]] that led to the final partition of the Kingdom of [[Oustec]]. The war began ostensibly as an intervention into Oustec by [[Caphiria]] to protect the community of Latin-speaking cities there. The unification of [[Burgundie]] created it as a strong, [[Levantia|Levantine]] colonial power with [[Equatorial Ostiecia|extensive possessions]] bordering Oustec. Its presence sparked a period of fear and panic in Caphiria regarding [[Levantine Creep]] and the fate of the Latins in the country. The sudden invasion of eastern Oustec on 18 March [[1858]] prompted a counter-invasion of the rest of the country by Burgundie in July, fearing that Caphiria might annex the entire rump Kingdom. In August, the estranged [[Arona#Provincial%20history|Harounan Province]] declared independence from the crumbling Oustec state and sought protection from [[Urcea]], whose forces in [[New Archduchy]] were well positioned to arrive at the Harounan Province in a timely manner. The Oustec, unable to resist invasion from three sides, pulled most of their forces back to their inland capital city of Oduria. Oduria was besieged by Burgoignesc forces for much of [[1859]] before finally falling towards the end of the year. The conflict threatened to escalate into a general conflict involving the three Occidental powers before [[Kiravia]] brokered a peace. | ||

JNS Daniel Launtceur was named for the [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] naval officer who assisted with the creation of much of [[Arcerion]]'s modern surface warfare doctrine, rooted in the [[Second Great War]]. His participation in the drafting, acceptance, and implementation was only second to his role as one of the combat officers on His Majesty's Arcerion Ship ''Tusk'', a light cruiser that conducted surface raids and actions against [[The Cape|Capetian]] vessels during the [[Second Great War]]. To date Daniel Launtceur is the only non-[[Arcerion|Arcer]] officer to receive the Arcerion Order of Merit (AOM) for wartime actions with the [[Royal Arcerion Naval Service]]. | |||
The base was originally built during the [[Bourgondii-Loa Wars]] as a minor retrofitting station in [[1837]]. At the conclusion of that conflict the station was all but abandoned but, its ownership remained in the hands of the [[Navy of Burgundie]]. In the [[First Great War]] it was reactivated, but its facilities were too archaic for it to be useful, so it served primarily as a barracks and training ground for local militias. After the conclusion of the [[First Great War]] it was loaned to the [[Revenue Guard]] as a Lifesaving Station. It served in that role until the [[Second Great War]] when a massive construction effort was made to allow for deeper draft ships to dock. New piers were constructed and modern radio relays were installed. These improvements were the last major reconstruction of the base until it was retrofitted for the [[Arcerion]]'s in [[2024]]-[[2029]]. Many of the smaller berths were back-filled to allow for easier replenishment of larger ships and for the dredging of fewer, deeper channels. New radars, and datalinks were installed as well as demolishing all of the facilities on the base and building them to a modern standard. The work was conducted by [[O'Shea Infrastructure and Design]] and many of the materials used were purchased from [[Estia-Odoneru Gypsum, Salt, and Aggregate]]. | |||
As part of the [[2033 Arcer Armed Forces Act]] the base is under construction, increasing its largest berth to accommodate the ''Kurst'' aircraft carrier group, as well as a host of replenishment vessels, merchant marine expeditionary support ships, and maritime aircraft such as helicopters and transports.

==Culture== | |||
The tenants of [[Mercantile Reform Protestantism]] predicate almost all aspects of culture in Equatorial Ostiecia. Work ethic, attire, observation of life's milestones, and entertainment are all conducted in a manner consistent with the modern practice of[[Mercantile Reform Protestantism]]. While not as stuffy and puritanical as it was in the past, society in Equatorial Ostiecia is the most formal, modest, and bound in societal norms of all of the constituent countries of [[Burgundie]]. | |||
===Work ethic=== | |||
===Attire=== | |||
Because of the [[Equatorial_Ostiecia#Climate|climate]], the standard fabrics for clothing in Equatorial Ostiecia are linen and muslin. These fabrics are either left in their natural colors or bleached white. Because of the predominantly [[Mercantile Reform Protestant]] attire is [[Occidental]], but notably formal and modest. In a professional environment men's shirts are typically button downs either with a turnover collar with some form of neckwear, or a Nehru collar without. High-waisted, pleated trousers are also common, without a cuff. Sleeves cut at the wrist and are worn slightly billowy for ventilation. In divergence from common [[Occidental]] styling, on top of these clothes is typically worn a {{wpl|Thawb#Middle_East_and_North_Africa|kandora}}, an ankle-length robe, usually with long sleeves. This is a tradition brought from [[Bergendii]] fleeing the collapse of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] in [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]] in the early 19th century and its name is both the name of the garment in [[Chaukhira]]n Arabic and after the colony of Kandara. In non-professional settings men typically wear camp shirts and linen trousers. Shorts are frowned upon for grown men. | |||
Women typically wear linen dresses, but modest blouses and slacks are acceptable. Over this, women typically wear a richly embroidered {{wpl|thawb}}, with different colors and patterns signifying various aspects of the wearer's social position and it's unique from town or city to another. | |||

The premise of the tourism trade in Equatorial Ostiecia is to be one with nature, to shed the manicured, hyper-urbanized experience of [[Burgoigniac]]s in the cities of Equatorial Ostiecia and the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]]. | |||

Equatorial Ostiecia uses [[Track gauges around the world|Standard gauge]], 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) for both freight and passenger rail. | |||
[[Rail_transportation_in_Burgundie#Equatorial_Express|Equatorial Express]]- The Equatorial Express ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Express Equatorial'') is the public sector, intercity, passenger rail operator in [[Equatorial Ostiecia]], [[Port de Vent]], and [[Sudmoll]]. It owns and operates all rail corridors, {{wp|rights of way}}, and rolling stock that serve this purpose. | |||
====Roads==== | |||
====Air==== | |||
====Energy and electricity==== | |||
====Phone service and internet==== | |||
Phone service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Island Mobile, and National Wireless Services]], which have 372, 271, and 482 towers respectively across the island. 100% of Equatorial Ostiecia and its population are covered by at least one of the services, National Wireless Services covering the less densely populated and therefore less profitable areas. Copperwire and fiberoptic phone still exists, one or both are required for all municipal and emergency response connections, and people along the route are allowed to buy in, but during emergencies their calls are de-prioritized in favor of emergency response calls, which is the same with mobile service on the island. | |||
Highspeed internet service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Vintage Wireless, and Island Mobile]]. Residential internet speeds average 2-3 gigabits while commercial speeds are typically higher in the 3-4 gigabit range. | |||
There are also 17 [[Global Maritime Distress and Safety System]] repeaters and beacons across the country. | |||
