Economy

Old Grehk is Beluaterras third largest economy measured by realm income. OG encourages free trade as long as it does not breach the laws of relevant trading realms concerned, and have trade routes established with almost all realms in the Beluaterra. A major issue of concern remains the persistently devastated population in many regions. Thus low population which slows down economic growth and limits tax rate. However the potential of the economy is great and population and production is slowly recovering.

Agriculture

Old Grehk has fertile plains which are have agricultural potential. Good soils and weather are found in regions such as Baqua, Pomatim and Ffangor. However workforce in Baqua and Pomatim is so affected by low population. Currently most food supply in Old Grehk is produced in Ffangor.

Industrial

As in most other large economic realms, Old Grehk's industrial sector have slowly recovered from the lack of labour and devastated towns. But compared with agriculture Old Grehk have two city remain intact after the invasion - Ossmat and Vozzessdor. Therefore industry is relatively strong Old Grehk is among the world's largest and most technologically advanced producers of textile, ironworks, tools and consumer goods, as well as a world leader in the weapon crafting industry.

Service

Old Grehk cities were able to defend off undead attacks during the war. Many banks continued business and remain strong. The Reserve Bank, The Ossmat and Vozzessdor Banking Corperation (OVBC) remains to be Old Grehk's largest finianical insitituions. Tourism also account to the growth of service sector. Ossmat the newly built, well planned Capital, Gethsemene the historical site of Old Grehk secession and Vozzessdor the lake City are popular destinations. Aside from cosmopolitan sites the Northern Mountains, the Northwest Coast and the Lake Region are also great tourism locations.

Natural Resources

The Northen Mountains provides most of the metal ore. The Lake region and the northern coast is rich in marine produce. The Central Plains is great for agriculture. Mekoter Forests provides wood for the realm.
