'''Bourgougia''', officially the '''Democratic Republic of Bourgougia''' is a sovereign state located in south-western Musgorocia. It is governed as a unitary semi-presidential republic. Bourgougia borders the Musgorocian Ocean to the west, Agostinia and Licrasse to the north, Aspinia, Roscait and Cispania to the east, and Côte d'Émeraude, Thouthen, the city-state of [[Victory (city-state)|Victory]] and the Novarian Ocean to the south.

Historically, Bourgougia was a French colony, gaining its independence during the Musgorocian wars of independence of the 1820s and 30s. Much like in Carloso, the country initially became an absolute monarchy guided by the enlightened despotism of Emperor Auguste I.

In 1946, an invasion of Agostinia triggered the [[Emergency War]], posing Bourgougia and Barssois against the Musgorocian Allies, led by Carloso. Despite initial success against the Allies, following the Miracle at Madrigal, Bourgougia began losing ground, and in 1950 was itself being invaded by enemy forces. In 1951, Carloso revealed its secret nuclear weapons programme and attacked Bourgougian forces with a dozen atomic bombs. Facing nuclear annihilation, the Bourgougian Army overthrew and killed Blanchet, and agreed to an unconditional surrender.
 
The subsequent occupation of Bourgougia led to the creation of a Carlosian-supported democratic government, but appeared illegitmate in the eyes of many Bourgougians. In 1964, a small group of {{wpl|Blanquism|Blanquist}} military officers launched a coup against the government.


Bourgougia is regarded as a upper-middle-income country, though its economy has struggled to recover from the brutal civil war that ravaged the country after the collapse of communist Bourgougia from the end of the [[Bourgougian Blitz]] until 2003.
