Largest industries in your nation?

Postby Sage Islands » Tue Sep 30, 2014 11:12 pm

Sage Island barbershops are internationally well known, along with our many exotic meats hunted in the Sage Island rainforests themselves. Many hardwoods are found nowhere else in the world, other than the Sage islands and it's neighbors. Vast plantations on some of the smaller islands also make Sage Islands Tobacco a leading provider, and all of it is exported (smoking is banned in the Sage Islands, for now). Our uranium mines produce much of the economy, along with the exotic fishes of the islands, some of which found nowhere else in the world. Tourism is also prevalent on our larger islands, providing jobs for thousands.

Manufacturing. Manufacturing everywhere.

It kind of happens when you have mountains/hills that are loaded with minerals and rivers that can power things (thank you hydroelectric dams) used to melt down, shape and rivet-together said minerals.

Services of all sorts. Running the gamut from retail, to financial services, to IT, to everything else in between. As an advanced, modern, developed nation, the services (or tertiary) portion of the economy tends to be the largest.

Manufacturing and other industrial activities still have major importance, however, and there is plentiful fertile land for agriculture. Resource gathering tends to be done at a slow pace, in order to keep natural resources from depleting too quickly. As a result, raw materials tends to be an area where imports are required.
I'm back I think.

Note: Before 2480, Olwe was called Athan. If you see this word in a thread, it's because you mentioned a year incompatible with Olwe in that thread but still made it open to all techs and therefore are allowing Athan's magic.

Tourism is one of the largest industries in Sunrisia. However, there many other industries that are just as developed and play a big role in the country's economy.

The dairy industry is the biggest, followed by wool and other agriculture. Tourism and hospitality are also huge, the liquor industry is big and the general service, retail and finance industries are growing.

Probably the tank industries.

Weapon industries are trying to compete for a place, but so far there is little success, as there isn't much need for small arms.

Pizza Delivery.

Infected Mushroom has a ton of massive pizza delivery chains in addition to the many more local restaurants and pizzerias.

They tend to use lots of olives, mushrooms, and sausages.

The people of Infected Mushroom really like pizza. The mushrooms are not normally infected.

Technology Industry, Arms manufacturing, And tourism.

Tech Industry effected by free market economics.

Arms Industry affected by ever citizen being part of the home guard and having to purchase certain items once they are 16 years of age.

Tourism for our environmental beauty, Culture, and massive economic zones.

We're big on agriculture, ore manufacturing and energy production in Norrænheim. Our main crops include various grains, fruit and vegetables that survive in the cooler-than-average oceanic climate. We mine titanium and thorium for manufacturing and energy production purposes, respectively. We prefer to use renewable energy in the form of solar, wind and geothermal energy instead of nuclear wherever possible, however.

Arms manufacturing, shipbuilding, construction (including space construction). Followed by metallurgy and synthetic material production.

Everything a military state at war needs, in other words.
Freedom doesn't mean being able to do as one please, but rather not to do as one doesn't please.
