The Constitutional Kingdom of New Burgundy , or more commonly, the Kingdom of New Burgundy, is a country of the western hemisphere, comprising of fifty-three provinces, and numerous territories and former colonies. It is composed of a group of islands in the Atlantic Ocean. It shares sea borders with Calderwood. The capital, St. Laurent, and its suburbs, compose the St. Laurent Greater Metropolitan Region.
New Burgundy is a constitutional monarchy. The current monarch is George II, who is also the King and Head of State of fifteen other Commonwealth Countries, including Mozambique, Senegal, Nigeria, and the Antilles.
New Burgundy is slightly larger than the United Kingdom in size, population, and GDP. The country gained independence in 1801, only three years after the start of the conflict, compared with five for the U.S. It is often considered a cross between the U.S.A, and Great Britain. Since then, is the only former colony to become and maintain a monarchy, as well to create a significant overseas colonial empire, excluding the United States. New Burgundy has risen to become a great power, economic powerhouse, military power, and official nuclear power.

- Main article: Herbidors
The Herbidors, the indigious peoples of New Burgundy, are belived to be of mixed ancestry, coming from both Northern Africa, and Europe. Early Heribidor culture saw advances in agriculture, building techiques, and the devlopment of a organised, monotheistic, religion. The Herbidors belived in a single god, Azanaba (Father-God), and that many years earlier, a prophet had come proclaiming the true faith. The simlarity of the Herbidor Religon to Christianity was probably one of the factors of the comparitvely good treatment of the Herbidors by the Europeans.
