From Particracy Wiki

[edit] Overview
Kanjor's traditional economy based on agriculture, forestry, small artisanship, and fishing along coast
Economy eventually moved toward mercantilism quickly due to Jewish merchants (many jews were not allowed to own land and therefore lived in cities and became merchants and bankers)
Industrialism came late due to traditional decentralization of Kanjor.
In the last few decades the economy of Kanjor has developed from mainly agricultural and heavy industrial production more towards the direction of technology, service enterprises, pharmaceutical products and energy based on Kanjor's big natural gas reserves, mostly under the control of Fortmix Energy which is one of Kanjor's biggest corporations. There are also some food, mining and forest industries.
The GDP of Kanjor at the start of 2341 was 1,190,834,272,840 Kanjoran rupees, the bulk of which (70%) came from domestic consumption and only 13% from foreign investments. It can be said that the business life of Kanjor is heavily centred on the domestic market due to the rapid growth of living standards & buying power of Kanjorans in the last few years. The remaining 17 % of the GDP is comprised of government services and investments.
The nation's budget at the start of 2341 had a surplus of over 7,000,000,000 Kanjoran rupees which is used for financial index corrections and investment in state enterprises.
