Military
See: Riamese Armed Forces
Riamo's military is a noticeable player in the region, fueled mainly by a long legacy of a strong shipbuilding industry and a strong tendency to make alliances with militaristic countries.
Economy
The Riamese economy has a very strong natinalized sector, most of which operates as private companies but under governmental supervision and guidance. This includes heavy machinery, shipbuilding, transportation and resource extraction, among others.
Riamese economy had always been supported mainly by a strong agricultural sector, however, after the Revolution of 1960 the country experienced a massive economic boom lead by legislation towards the protectionism of local enterprises, the overexploitation of high value economical resources, benefitial geopolitical factors, foreign interventionism, and governmental investments into high-value sectors. By the 1980's, Riamo was in an unprecedented economic boom that lead companies to start exporting goods to the whole world.
By the 2010's, the most economically effective sectors included those of:
- Manufacture of fabricated goods related with public daily consumption
- Affordable public mobility
- Rural strategic resource production
- Local assets of international enterprises
- Design and construction of fixed transport structures
- Specialized silicon microchip technology
- Manufacture of vessels and equipment dedicated towards the intent of national defense
Riamo is one of the top global producers of iron, peaches, wine, military armament, microchips, cabbage, oranges and ammonia.
Important Companies
- Riamese Railways Company The RRC is known for being the owner of all subway systems in the nation and 3 mainline companies of rail transport. Through the use of the Ferrer system, the RRC has achieved an average return margin of over 102% on all subway systems operated by the company, including 2 systems in Krenya and 3 elsewhere in the world
- Vayle industries - famous for their V22 "vector" and C3-A "arrow" multi-role fighter aircraft
- COPA - manufacturer of RSS Constelation
- Guri Aerospace - manufacturer of RS70 "razor"
- Union de Navieras Barlovento - shipbuilding company in charge of the new Ciudad Class Frigates
Agriculture
Agriculture in Riamo has always been a fundamental pillar of the economy, with peaches, oranges, grapes, cabbage, chetnuts, rice and cherries being the main exports.
Transport
After the nationalization of land transportation of 1955, subways, airlines, bus companies and shipping companies, all became government-owned. After that year, and during the Mid-century dictatorships, subways and airlines would see a massive increment in their bugdet, with subways adopting the Ferrer System.
Nowadays, many political parties have a possitive view on public transportation, but specially since 2006, when major investments on mass transit systems returned to Riamo, converting the nation into a world leader in the area.
Public Transportation
See: Mass Transportation in Riamo
The Ferrer System was adopted in the early 70s as a response to the low income of public transportation nation-wide. By the System, public transportation companies would purchase land in advance of a major investment in the area. Puchased land would then be used primarily for the construction of facilities provided by the company, such as subway lines and stations, but a large part of the land would be used to construct building that would not only further boost local land value, but aserve as residential and commercial buildings leased by the transportation company to further generate income.
The Ferrer System made income from public transportation skyrocket, but was severely critiziced later due to the supposedly overexploited people living and working in these leased land. The protests, however, were listened to, and the government created a law that would reduce taxes to people living in these areas.
Because of the Ferrer System, Riamo has become the only nation whose all mass transport systems produce revenue instead of requiring funding from the federal government.
From all subway systems in Riamo, the most well known ones are:
- Guri - Capital of Riamo, possesses the largest public transportation network in the continent.
- Nashe - Being the densest city in Riamo, Nashe counts with a vast public transportation system.
- Portona - The olimpic capital of Riamo. Counts with 14 subway lines built in less than 30 years and is in continuous expansion.
