Eloillette: Difference between revisions

The people of Eloillette first united under the name now synonymous with the disputed territorial entity they are represented by in 1780 when they declared independence from the [[Burgoignesc thalassocracy|Thalassocracy of Burgundie]]. This was done through peaceful means largely due to pressure from the larger continental powers of [[Caphiria]] and [[Cartadania]], both looking to expand their influence in the region. In the case of the former as well, the idea of a [[Levantine Creep]] made it an important goal of Caphiria’s to contain and rid the continent of influence from [[Levantia|Levantine]] powers. Though Eloillette was influenced linguistically by the presence of their [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] colonial administrators, the culture and identity of the people remained as the colony was never of significant monetary or strategic value. In 1781 after negotiations between Burgundie, Caphiria, and Cartadania concluded, the Treaty of Víela Vedeña granted the fledgling nation of Eloillette independence.
