The Navy of Burgundie is a maritime branch of the [[Burgoignesc Security Forces]]. Founded in the 17th century, the Navy of Burgundie is one of the oldest navies still in continual service, with precursors dating back to the Middle Ages. It has taken part in key events in [[Burgoignesc military history]] and played a critical role in establishing and securing the [[Burgoignesc thalasocrassy|Burgoignesc colonial empire]] for over 400 years. The Navy of Burgundie pioneered several innovations in naval technology including:
*the {{wpl|naval ram}};
*military {{wpl|clipper ship}}s;
*{{wpl|Barbette#Use_in_warships|barbettes}};
*{{wpl|Jeune Ecole|Jeune Ecole strategy}}/{{wpl|torpedo}}s{{wpl|torpedo boat}}s;
*{{wpl|VLS}};
*{{wpl|containerization}};
*{{wpl|radar}};
*{{wpl|sonar}};
*{{wpl|LORAN}}; and
*pandemic-level "proliferation" of [[Bergendii]] genetic material. It is said that up to 1/5th of the world's coastal population is the progeny of the Navy and [[Merchant Marine of Burgundie]].
==Mission==


The mission of the Navy of Burgundie is to maintain, train and equip combat-ready maritime and littoral combat forces capable of winning wars, deterring aggression, and guaranteeing the freedom and safety of Burgoignesc sovereignty, its waterways, and [[Freedom of the seas]].


The Navy's five primary areas of responsibility are:

Young School- The Jeune École ("Young School") was a strategic naval concept developed during the 19th century. It advocated the use of small, powerfully equipped units to combat a larger battleship fleet, and commerce raiders capable of ending the trade of the rival nation. The idea was developed among Burgundian naval theorists: the Burgundian government had one of the largest navies of the time, and the theorists desired to counteract the strength of the Kiravian Navy which was the largest.

Countre-Jeune École- Caphiria utilized the Jeune École against the Urcean Royal Navy and the Navy of Burgundie during the First Fratricide, Red Intereggnum and the Second Fratricide. This spurred the development of coastal defense ships and guard ships not only in Burgundie but also other southern Levantine countries.

In the conduct of littoral/amphibious combat [[Burgundie]] has distinguished itself as a brutal adversary. Starting in the second half of [[Operation Kipling]] the Navy began a policy of unrelenting resource extraction along the coast of adversarial nations. Flotillas of trawlers we're assembled to feed the soldiers, sailors, and Marines leading to those serving in eastern [[Alshar]] to get the moniker "Mukbang Marines". This later expanded to littoral mineral and Petro carbon exploration/mining efforts as well. This all led to the Navy defraying about 28-34% of the war costs by the last two years of the war.

The [[Metaorizonal]] Age in [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] naval doctrine started with the advent of microprocessors become prevalent enough to be used in missiles that allowed beyond the horizon ''metaorizonal'' targeting but is pegged specifically to the implementation of vertical launch systems (VLS) on surface combatants in [[1985]]. While other navies quickly adopted this technology, [[Burgundie]] embarked on a grand scheme to retrofit almost all of it's larger surface combatants with VLS systems in the 90s through 2010s. This provided incredible metaorizonal capabilities to the entire navy but as soon as it was completed it was obvious that the ships were starting to age out and newer ships were required.

The '''United Cities''' was a state that existed in northwestern [[Corumm]] and parts of [[Canpei]] from 915 to 1215. Emerging during the death throes of the Chen dynasty and the Four Great Impostors crisis, it was originally created as a confederation of city states, the main aim of which was mutual protection, eliminating bad governance, promoting the slave trade and evading imperial taxation. The original members were the cities of [[Heng]], Sho Battai, Brink, Heft and Stoat. The economy of the United Cities was heavily dominated by slavery and not soon after its founding would slavers become the ruling class, effectively creating a highly corrrupt and despotic plutocracy. The United Cities would fall to [[Corumm]]ese Zhong dynasty armies in 1215 but many of its trade  and societal practices would continue in the territories that it had ruled.

=== Climate ===
|-
The predominant climate of the area covered by the United Cities is cold semi-arid, featuring warm, dry summers and freezing winters with temperatures dropping below zero. Winters usually see light to moderate snowfall.
|[[Navy of Burgundie#Attack Submarines|Attack Submarines]]
=== Government ===
|52
The United Cities was ruled by the Council of Cities, a collection of the wealthiest and most influential men of each city. Only the richest ten citizens from each city were allowed to take part in the council. The choosing was not through election but by a tallying of the monetary worth of the aspirant, usually carried out by Traders Guild accountants. Every ten years a member of the council would be elected by simple majority to serve as Grand Secretary of the United Cities. The Grand Secretary had powers to represent the UC in foreign matters and trade negotiations. For the United Cities entire three hundred year existence the position was typically rotated, with no one city ever holding on to the position for consecutive terms.

=== Military ===

The United Cities kept a unified standing army known as the Iron Legion, composed of twenty thousand men in lamellar armor, divided into footmen, cavalry and artillery corps. It was augmented by city self-defense forces and private militias composed of slaves as needed. The Iron Legion was able to repel the numerically superior armies of the Zhong for many years until funding cutbacks, corruption and the intake of slaves into its ranks drastically reduced its combat effectiveness.

=== Economy ===

The United Cities economy was heavily reliant on slave labor for its agricultural and industrial manpower. UC slavers would undertake great raids into [[Rusana]], [[Duamacia]] and the rest of Zhong dominated [[Corumm]] to procure slaves for both internal use and for export. It would also acquire Audonian slaves through intermediaries since the UC never had direct access to the sea. The semiarid climate made for poor agricultural output, crops that required little water like cactus were favored. The rare alcoholic Cactus Rum has its origins in the United Cities and was also a big earner. Another source of revenue was taxation of caravans traversing through UC territory. Most trade in and out of the United Cities was overseen by an institution known as the United Traders Guild

==Equipment==
 
The Navy of Burgundie uses a vertiable array of equipment to accomplish its various missions. Being the second eldest branch of the [[Burgoignesc Security Forces]] it also maintains stores of historic equipment for parades, memorials, commemorations, demonstrations, training, and as museum pieces. The modern aestheic of the modern Burgoignesc sailor is considerably dated compared to his/her counterparts but the equipment they use and sail on is some the most advanced in the world. The materiel and vehicles used by the Navy are exemplary of its mission, "maintain, train and equip combat-ready Naval forces capable of winning wars, deterring aggression, and maintaining the freedom and safety of the [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] littoral waterways and the international shipping lanes", in that the assumption is that the ships need to be able to accommodate forward deployed forces for long periods at all times. When not at war, readiness is assured through the constant participation in humanitarian missions and military exercises leading to the fleets of Burgundie having larger contingent of supply and sustainment vessels compared to any other navy its size. This make up also supports Burgundie's participation in the [[Levantine Union]] Defense Council, where it plays a crucial role in combat support and logistics. Unlike other neighbors, specifically Urcea, it does not have a massive aircraft carrier contingent, sporting only one mid-size carrier per fleet. Naval aviation is typically designation as a defensive measure and it achieves Command of the sea in the [[Metaorizonal]] Age through a sharing of resources with other [[Levantine Union]] Defense Council partners.
 
Marine infantry are equipped quite differently from their purely naval brethren. Their uniforms both combat and parade resemble those of the [[Army of Burgundie]] but they retain their naval heritage in their insignia. Having been mostly supplanted in their mission by the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion the Marine infantry are a relatively small unit of 46,490 personnel, tasked primarily with base security, maritime law enforcement duties, and humanitarian aid protection and distribution.

==Naval jack==
 
The Burgoignesc Naval Jack is a burgundy field with the Burgundian Cross in canton. This design was adopted as the flag in 1821 after it was flown over the successful Closing of the Channel during the War of Northern Aggression.
 
In accordance with Burgoignesc Flag Code it is flown at altitudo luminare (Eng. lesser altitude) then the Burgoignesc Flag, but has the honor of being granted altitudo idem (Eng. same height) status as the royal flag and superioritatem (Eng. superiority) over all other flags in Burgundie, including the flags of the other military branches.
 
Previous to the adoption of the current naval jack there was not a singular flag for the Navy of Burgundie.

The United Cities was a state that existed in northwestern Corumm and parts of Canpei from 915 to 1215. Emerging during the death throes of the Chen dynasty and the Four Great Impostors crisis, it was originally created as a confederation of city states, the main aim of which was mutual protection, eliminating bad governance, promoting the slave trade and evading imperial taxation. The original members were the cities of Heng, Sho Battai, Brink, Heft and Stoat. The economy of the United Cities was heavily dominated by slavery and not soon after its founding would slavers become the ruling class, effectively creating a highly corrrupt and despotic plutocracy. The United Cities would fall to Corummese Zhong dynasty armies in 1215 but many of its trade and societal practices would continue in the territories that it had ruled.

History

Geography

Climate

The predominant climate of the area covered by the United Cities is cold semi-arid, featuring warm, dry summers and freezing winters with temperatures dropping below zero. Winters usually see light to moderate snowfall.

Government

The United Cities was ruled by the Council of Cities, a collection of the wealthiest and most influential men of each city. Only the richest ten citizens from each city were allowed to take part in the council. The choosing was not through election but by a tallying of the monetary worth of the aspirant, usually carried out by Traders Guild accountants. Every ten years a member of the council would be elected by simple majority to serve as Grand Secretary of the United Cities. The Grand Secretary had powers to represent the UC in foreign matters and trade negotiations. For the United Cities entire three hundred year existence the position was typically rotated, with no one city ever holding on to the position for consecutive terms.

Military

The United Cities kept a unified standing army known as the Iron Legion, composed of twenty thousand men in lamellar armor, divided into footmen, cavalry and artillery corps. It was augmented by city self-defense forces and private militias composed of slaves as needed. The Iron Legion was able to repel the numerically superior armies of the Zhong for many years until funding cutbacks, corruption and the intake of slaves into its ranks drastically reduced its combat effectiveness.

Foreign Relations

Economy

The United Cities economy was heavily reliant on slave labor for its agricultural and industrial manpower. UC slavers would undertake great raids into Rusana, Duamacia and the rest of Zhong dominated Corumm to procure slaves for both internal use and for export. It would also acquire Audonian slaves through intermediaries since the UC never had direct access to the sea. The semiarid climate made for poor agricultural output, crops that required little water like cactus were favored. The rare alcoholic Cactus Rum has its origins in the United Cities and was also a big earner. Another source of revenue was taxation of caravans traversing through UC territory. Most trade in and out of the United Cities was overseen by an institution known as the United Traders Guild
