Tagmatium Rules Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Burgundy (The Archduchy of). I'd suggest looking at Wikipedia - here's the link to a "Burgundy" search: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgundy The thing is with wikipedia is you can get lost following links...
Haken Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 I tought this was about a former member... Burgundy: burned Jenanne d'Arc, was once in the medieval times a strong power when it, through a marriage, gained Flanders and they have famous wines.
Tamurin Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Wikipedia is always good... Just a few thoughts here: Burgundy was not created by someone. The Burgunds were a germanic tribe that settled in this region during the 4th century AD. Burgundy became a part of the Empire of the Franks. After the Empire of the Franks was split, Burgundy was once again a nation of its own (more or less - "nation" really doesn't apply in those days). During the middle ages, Burgundy became a regional power in western europe, influencing the politics of France, Germany and Italy. In the end, it was integrated into France.
