Burkeland

Burkeland is a Non Playable Faction (NPC) in Tradelands. Burkeland is well-known for building most of the ships seen in Tradelands; except for a few seen below. Not much else is known about Burkeland, other than it's known that Burkeland is often neutral in politics unless provoked. However they are at war with the Purshovian Federation at the moment.

The World Summit - Coal Ban Edit
During the World Summit, Burkeland had suggested a coal limit on all the faction's navies which Inyola had agreed to, and Purshovia there to disagree. A short excerpt from Burkeland during the summit was this, "The coal's pollution and smoke is ruining our clear blue sky, we wouldn't want that to return to us, therefore we suggest to start a limit on coal usage."

Burkish Merchants Fired, Receive Fire From Nova Balreskan Navy Edit
Due to a misconception of a cannon fire by an unknown ship, the Nova Balreska Navy had fired upon the Burkish ship killing a few. In spite of this, the merchants quickly fired back, and tried to reach Hallengard for safety. Eventually someone was able to contact Burkeland and a trial was set for the Nova Navy Officials who were at the incident. The Nova Balreskan Navy Admiral Thespirit303lol was found guilty and sentenced to being demoted in the navy and a 100,000 Doubloons fine to be paid.

Nova Balreskan - Burkeland Conflict Edit
The Nova Balreskan - Burkeland Conflict was a conflict between Nova Balreska and Burkeland. The war began shortly after the map expansion update on December the 15th 2019, when the two newly added islands, Harrisburg and Salem, rebelled under Burkeland rule pledging loyalty to Nova Balreska instead. Currently, Burkeland has managed to successfully recapture Harrisburg from Nova Balreskan occupation, however Salem remains under the Nassau rebels after they occupied it from Nova Balreska, Some people say that Nahr_Nahrstein himself was involved in pushing Burkeland to invade Nova Balreskan territories. They also introduced the Binglehopper ironclad during this event.

Geography Edit
