The frighteningly efficient Absolute communism579ian economy, worth 790 trillion Platinums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 180,940 Platinums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.
