 ====Impact of colonization====
+The establishment and expansion of the [[Burgoignesc colonial empire]], occured in regions that were, by and large, not conducive to growing wine grapes. As [[Maritime Dericania]] expanded its colonial empire into regions unsuitable for viticulture, the economy of the metropoles experienced diversification. Wealth generated from colonies involved in other lucrative activities, such as trade in spices, textiles, or minerals, influenced investment and ducal patronage patterns within [[Maritime Dericania]], leading to an expansion in the wine industry's financial landscape. The guilds, deeply rooted in tradition, maintained a certain level of resistance to radical shifts in viticulture and winemaking. The preservation of [[Maritime Dericania]]n winemaking heritage and terroir-conscious practices become a rallying point for these guilds in the 1600s, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the distinctiveness of [[Levantia|Levantine]] wines. The colonies and overseas markets were rich in unique resources, which contributed to a heightened demand for exotic beverages within [[Maritime Dericania]]. This led to the importation of novel drinks, like [[Montigralska]], creating a diverse beverage culture. While wine would likely remain a central element of [[Maritime Dericania]]n culture, the availability of other beverages shook the confidence of metropolitan vitners.
+The Age of Enlightenment's emphasis
+on scientific inquiry and innovation eventually opened up the minds of the guilds. The intellectual currents of this era inspired [[Bergendii]] viticulturists to approach winemaking with a more scientific lens. Insights gained from the study of diverse climates and agricultural practices in the colonies might be applied to enhance [[Burgundie]]'s viticulture. Experimentation with new grape varieties, cultivation techniques, or winemaking processes in the guild schools occured and some changes were made to improve the local processes.
+Colonial endeavors competed with the wine industry for resources, both in terms of manpower and capital. Investments in colonial ventures diverted resources away from traditional viticulture at times. This competition necessitated strategic decisions by [[Maritime Dericania]]'s ruling classed to balance economic interests and maintain the prosperity of the wine regions, places like the [[Duchy of Marialanus]] invested heavily in the further development of its wine, while the [[Duchy of Bourgondi]] did not. The establishment of colonial empires also lead to shifts in social dynamics within [[Maritime Dericania]]n states. The economic and cultural influences from the colonies altered societal preferences, impacting social rituals and traditions, including those associated with wine consumption. Tea, coffee, whiskey, brandy, sake, and palm wine all competed with [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc wines for a place at the table.
