General Information

The economy is considered the most important part of the Empire. The economy is mostly dependent on the nation, with little foreign trade. Much of the province of Oberepyun is given over to industry, especially the capital of Loçñalkyo. Officially, the government is not involved in businesses, however, several of the large corporations (Cerberus Weapons Corporation, Electronics of Footballia, Footballian Imperial Media and Footballian Uranium Corporation) are run by government officials, and the government uses these giants to squash any companies that go against it. Monopolies are encouraged, and even without government interference, large corporations gobble up smaller businesses daily.
