Niagaran explorers found what is now the northwestern coast of Inglaterra in 1809. By 1811, a colony in what is now Påskebyen was established. The colonies grew rapidly, with fertile coastal farmlands providing the perfect environment for agriculture. In 1853, the Niagaran Imperial government granted internal autonomy to the various Inglaterran colonies, which were consolidated into the Inglaterran Viceroyalty. During this time, a noticable divergence, particularly in the eastern frontier colonies, from Niagaran began. This new language, influenced by Nuwelander and Cetanni languages, became known as "Inglaterran-Niagaran" and was eventually categorized as an independent language in 1901. Following the construction of the new Trans-Galian Canal, the Inglaterran colonies demanded partial control of the canal, which was surrounded by Inglaterran territory and constructed mostly by Inglaterran labrorers. The refusal of the Niagaran government led to the [[Inglaterran UDI|Inglaterran colonies declaring independence in 1899]]. Despite having a numerical advantage, the untrained Inglaterran Army was not able to capture the canal from Niagara, and control over the cities of Kanaalstêd and Ammer was ceded to the new Niagaran colony. The newly independent [[First Inglaterran Confederacy|Inglaterran Confederacy]] sided against the Niagarans in the [[First Great War (Manala|First Great War]]. This put Inglaterra against the [[Antarctic Circle States]], the [[Dominion of Alaoyi]], and the [[Alannan Empire]]. Despite sucessfully several border towns of the Antarctic Circle States and parts of eastern Alaoyi, Inglaterra became bogged down in trench warfare and did not advance deep into either country's territory and failed to occupy the Niagaran Canal Colony. Inglaterra was forced to sign an armistice in 1918, along with the rest of the [[Opposition Powers of GW1|Opposition]]. During the Interwar, Inglaterra's previously democratic government [[Kompar Coup|fell to the militarist communist Kompars in 1936]]. During the [[Second Great War]], Inglaterra occupied several border towns of the Antarctic Circle States and the entirety of the Canal Colony, but threw most of its forces against Alaoyi. Successful operations, and the forcing of a two front war in Alaoyi, led to the [[Yedinburg Pact]] emerging victorious from the war. Inglaterra would become one of the strongest powers in the region. During the [[Third Great War]], due to the expense of millions of lives, Inglaterra's [[Summer of Fire (Inglaterra)|Kompar government collapsed]], ending the [[First Galian Cold War]] and beginning the New Confederate Era. | ||
After a brief period of democracy from 1983 until 2006, Inglaterra's political system has been dominated by [[Pieter Wyckoff]], a veteran and politician under whom the country has experienced democratic backsliding and a shift towards authoritarianism. Inglaterra has been involved in new political conflicts, sparking the [[Second Galian Cold War]], which is considered to have started in 2011 with the annexation of the Niagaran Northwestern Frigo overseas territory. International rankings of Inglaterra place it low in measurements of human rights and freedom of the press; the country also has high levels of perceived corruption. | After a brief period of democracy from 1983 until 2006, Inglaterra's political system has been dominated by [[Pieter Wyckoff]], a veteran and politician under whom the country has experienced democratic backsliding and a shift towards authoritarianism.

Inglaterra's climate is mostly tundra and arctic environments, which cover roughly 82% of Inglaterra' landmass. The most hospitable portions of the country are the northern coast and the Galian portion of Inglaterra. Collectively, these areas make up roughly 15 to 20 percent of the country's landmass. Over 153 million of the 180 million Inglaterrans live on the northern coast or in the Galian portions, with 102 million people living in the Galian portion or the northwestern coast of the country. | Inglaterra's climate is mostly tundra and arctic environments, which cover roughly 82% of Inglaterra' landmass.

The [[National Solidarity Party]] is the dominant political party in Inglaterra, and has been described as "big tent" and the "party of power". Under the administrations of [[Pieter Wyckoff]] and [[Harald Uffson]], Inglaterra has experienced democratic backsliding, and has become an authoritarian state under a dictatorship, with Wyckoff's policies being referred to as [[Wyckoffism]]. | ||

The Inglaterran state is further divided into twenty seven "governorates". Each governorate features a government holding authority over a defined geographic territory, with a legislature that is, in theory, democratically elected. The governor is the highest executive position of the local government in a governorate, and is elected by the people. Governorates are divided into districts, cities of high importance (district-equivalent independent cities), and autonomous regions, which are legally confederal subjects equal to an governorate but are administratively subservient to one. | The Inglaterran state is further divided into twenty seven "governorates".

= | =Economy= | ||
Inglaterra has one of the largest | Inglaterra follows a mixed economic model with a considerable amount of natural resources, including parts of the [[Great West Frigan Oilfield]] and [[South Galia Shale]], which it shares, and for the mining of iron, copper, and titanium. It has Manala's sixth-largest economy. The service sector is responsible for about 48% of total GDP, with the industrial and mining sectors also making up 48%. Agriculture makes up 7% of GDP. The current unemployment rate is 5.3% in Inglaterra. The labor force of over 75 million workers is one of the largest in the world. | ||
[[File:Business Centre of Moscow 2.jpg|270px|thumb|right|The central business district in [[Rästvall]], Inglaterra's largest city. Rästvall is the country's financial center and is a crucial part of the Inglaterran export market.]] | |||
Inglaterra's export market relies heavily on revenues from the sale of materials such as iron, copper, and titanium as well as the sale of agricultural goods. Collectively, these two categories make up 70% of Inglaterran exports. However, Inglaterra imports many consumer goods as its industrial sector consists primarily of industrial production as opposed to consumer production. While Inglaterra has low levels of debt, income inequality is high in the country. Additionally, a great disparity between the much wealthier [[Far East of Inglaterra|Far East]] and [[Far West of Inglaterra|Far West]] and the poorer [[Midterra (Manala)|Midterra]] region exists. | |||
Despite having rapid growth following the collapse of communist rule due to a boom in mining and oil processing, a flight of foreign investment and international sanctions have severely impacted Inglaterra's economy and wealth. This flight began as living standards declined relative to other parts of the world, but increased rapidly in the 2010s. This phenomenon became especially strong in wake of the [[Kolmhark Islands War]], which led to revamped sanctions and corporate boycotts, making Inglaterra one of the most sanctioned countries on the planet, in a move described as an "all-out economic and financial war" to isolate the Inglaterran economy from the [[Nordic world|Nordic World]]. Due to the impact of sanctions, the Inglaterran government officially halted publishing of several indicators of economic data since April 2023. Economists suggest that the sanctions and brain drain will result in long-term and permanent damage to the Inglaterran economy. | |||
==Transportation== | |||
Railway transport in Inglaterra is mostly under the control of the state-operated [[Inglaterra Rail]]. The total length of railway tracks is one of the longest in the world, exceeding 87,000 km, a relatively low density in part due to the large size of Inglaterra. Inglaterra Rail, the state-owned national rail carrier, is one of the world's largest transport companies, enjoying a monopoly over transgovernorate rail transport in Inglaterra. Established in 1987, it employs close to a million people and accounted for 2.5% of the entire national GDP in 2009. In 2017, Inglaterra Rail carried a total of 1.5 billion passengers and 1.4 billion tons of freight on its common-carrier routes. | |||
[[File:CN 8015, 5690 and 5517 Hinton - Jasper.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Rail transport is the most common form of transport in Inglaterra and is a crucial connection for the country.]] | |||
Inland waterways form a small portion of Inglaterran transportation, but coastal waterways form a crucial part of Inglaterran transportation, especially in the Frigan portion of the country. According to official government statistics, in 2012, 142.3 million tons of cargo were carried by waterway or along the coast of the country. During that same year, 58 companies were engaged in freight and/or passenger transportion over Inglaterr's waterways; transporting 24.9 million passengers. The largest port in Inglaterra is the [[Port of Harkzel]], which is centrally located in the country as a whole. | |||

Inglaterra | |||
As of 2016, Inglaterra had one of the world's largest road networks, with 1.5 million km of roads, of which about 1 million are paved while its road density is among the world's lowest and much lower than other wealthy countries, though this has been blamed on the low population density of th country. Road safety and quality in Inglaterra is poor, with a road accident rate higher than in the [[North Galian Union]], the [[Antarctic Circle States]], or [[Akenye]]. In 2011, Inglaterra was 4th by number of absolute recorded road deaths. Increasingly harsher penalties for traffic violations were imposed after 2011, but the level of corruption among traffic law enforcement authorities limits their effectiveness in reducing the number of accidents. Dashcams are widespread, inasmuch as Inglaterran courts prefer video evidence to eyewitness testimony, but also as a guard against police corruption and insurance fraud. Corruption, lack of oversight, failure to update road standards, and lack of maintenance in favor of rail transport has been blamed for poor road quality. Roads are primarily funded by local governments, though several are funded by the confederal government. | |||
[[Inglaterran Airlines]], is the flag carrier and the largest airline, with its head office in Aachtigen. There are over 1,000 active airports in Inglaterra serving over 6.8 million passengers a year. The largest airport is [[Joeri Wasindone International Airport]] in Aachtigen. | |||
==Mining and Energy== | |||
Inglaterra has been widely described as a "superpower" in the production of oil and mining, both of which form over half of Inglaterra's exports and over 35% of Inglaterra's GDP. Access to large oil fields in the far west and far east of the country, though these fields are shared with neighboring countries, and considerable state investment into the oil industry has resulted in Inglaterra being a global oil producers and exporter, leading to deep economic relationships with countries like [[Etesia]], [[Alanna]], or [[Gryva]]. Prior to sanctions on Inglaterran imports, close to one third of Alaoyian and Akenyan energy came from Inglaterran natural gas and oil. Oil and gas alone made up about a fifth of Inglaterran GDP in 2021. | |||

In addition to oil production, Midterra is a hub of mining. Primary products include iron, copper, titanium, and {{wp|Rare-earth element|trace deposit elements}}. The mining of copper and trace deposit elements has contributed to a burgeoning electronics energy and export market that is growing, with mining forming 14% of Inglaterra's GDP, primarily boosted by copper and trace deposit element mining. | |||
[[File:VKG Energia panoraam.jpg|225px|thumb|left|An oil refining site outside of [[Treffon]], in northeastern Inglaterra.]] | |||
Oil and gas are primarily exported or processed in Inglaterra, with only a portion reserved for domestic use. This has resulted in the largest source of domestic electricity being nuclear power, which provides about 55% of domestic energy. The remaining 45% of energy is primarily made up of the oil and gas which is not exported, wind, and geothermal energy. | |||
Inglaterra | ==Agriculture and Fishing== | ||
Inglaterra's agriculture sector contributes about 5% of the country's total GDP, although the sector employs about one-eighth of the total labor force. Inglaterra has a large arable area at 1,474,000 square kilometers. However, due to the relatively harsh environment in much of Inglaterra, only 14.7% of Inglaterra's territory is actually suitable for human habitation and agriculture. The country's agricultural territory is considered a "breadbasket" in Galia. About a fifth of Inglaterran farmland is used on fodder crops, with the remaining farmland devoted to grains and vegetables. The main product is grain, which occupies over half of farmland and one of the largest exports. Other key exported crops include wheat, barley, buckwheat, maize, and sunflower oil. In addition, Inglaterra is one of the largest producers of fertilizer worldwide. | |||

Inglaterra | |||
Various analysts of climate change adaptation foresee large opportunities for Inglaterran agriculture during the rest of the 21st century as arability increases in the more frigid tundra regions of the country, which would lead to both internal and external migration to the region. Owing to its large coastline, one of the longest in the world, Inglaterra maintains a large and vibrant fishing industry; capturing nearly 5 million tons of fish in 2018. Inglaterra produces about one-third of all canned fish, and some one-fourth of the world's total fresh and frozen fish. It is the largest fishing industry in Frigo and Galia. | |||
==Industry== | |||
Inglaterra's manufacturing industry is a large employer in the country, producing roughly 13% of national GDP and fuled by Inglaterra's fuel reserves and mineral deposits. Major manufacturing includes steel, construction equipment, weapons, and areospace products. Inglaterran weaponry is the primary basis for several militaries in Galia, including large powers like [[Dilania]] and [[Yawatha]] and Inglaterran automotive manufacturing is an important source of revenue, with Inglaterran cars being common in countries like [[Etesia]], [[Alanna]], and parts of [[Gryva]] and Stratea. | |||
==Tourism== | |||
Due to the long and storied history of Inglaterra, multitude of classical architectural styles are present in the country, and have formed national and international tourist attractions. Sites like the Presidential Palace in Aachtigen or the Saint Grotus Cathedral in Harkzel are considered architectural marvels and have been historically popular destinations for tourism. In addition to cultural tourism, natural and sports tourism, taking advantage of Inglaterra's varied climate and vast and mostly untouched natural areas being popular draws as well. | |||
After the [[2021 Inglaterra-Alaoyi Crisis|2021 crisis]], several governments, including [[The Furbish Islands]], [[Gagium]], [[Greater Niagara]], [[Akenye]], and [[Alaoyi]] have issued travel advisories calling on their nationals to avoid travel to Inglaterra. Many traditional air and sea routes were also suspended indefinitely, and tourism from the Nordic World has dropped rapidly since 2021. | |||

Inglaterra, or the New Confederacy of Inglaterra, is a transcontinental country covering territory in both Frigo and Galia. It is one of the largest countries in the world, with its internationally recognised territory covering over 10 million square kilometres and encompassing almost 7% of the world's landmass. It is one of the world's most populous countries and the most populated country in Frigo, with a population of over 179 million people. The country's capital is Aachtigen but the largest city is the coastal port of Rästvall. The second largest city of Brehoven is a major commercial and cultural center. Other major urban areas include Harkzel, Fort Anders, Treffon, Påskebyen and Noardstêd. It is bordered by Alaoyi to the northeast and the Antarctic Circle States to the south. In additon, bisecting Inglaterra is the Niagaran Canal Colony.
The first people known to live in what is now Inglaterra were the various Cetanni peoples, of which the predominant groups were Inith and Diash, but Nuwelander groups were present by the 5th century BC. Niagaran explorers found what is now the northwestern coast of Inglaterra in 1809. By 1811, a colony in what is now Påskebyen was established. The colonies grew rapidly, with fertile coastal farmlands providing the perfect environment for agriculture. In 1853, the Niagaran Imperial government granted internal autonomy to the various Inglaterran colonies, which were consolidated into the Inglaterran Viceroyalty. During this time, a noticable divergence, particularly in the eastern frontier colonies, from Niagaran began. This new language, influenced by Nuwelander and Cetanni languages, became known as "Inglaterran-Niagaran" and was eventually categorized as an independent language in 1901. Following the construction of the new Trans-Galian Canal, the Inglaterran colonies demanded partial control of the canal, which was surrounded by Inglaterran territory and constructed mostly by Inglaterran labrorers. The refusal of the Niagaran government led to the Inglaterran colonies declaring independence in 1899. Despite having a numerical advantage, the untrained Inglaterran Army was not able to capture the canal from Niagara, and control over the cities of Kanaalstêd and Ammer was ceded to the new Niagaran colony. The newly independent Inglaterran Confederacy sided against the Niagarans in the First Great War. This put Inglaterra against the Antarctic Circle States, the Dominion of Alaoyi, and the Alannan Empire. Despite sucessfully several border towns of the Antarctic Circle States and parts of eastern Alaoyi, Inglaterra became bogged down in trench warfare and did not advance deep into either country's territory and failed to occupy the Niagaran Canal Colony. Inglaterra was forced to sign an armistice in 1918, along with the rest of the Opposition. During the Interwar, Inglaterra's previously democratic government fell to the militarist communist Kompars in 1936. During the Second Great War, Inglaterra occupied several border towns of the Antarctic Circle States and the entirety of the Canal Colony, but threw most of its forces against Alaoyi. Successful operations, and the forcing of a two front war in Alaoyi, led to the Yedinburg Pact emerging victorious from the war. Inglaterra would become one of the strongest powers in the region. During the Third Great War, due to the expense of millions of lives, Inglaterra's Kompar government collapsed, ending the First Galian Cold War and beginning the New Confederate Era.
After a brief period of democracy from 1983 until 2006, Inglaterra's political system has been dominated by Pieter Wyckoff, a veteran and politician under whom the country has experienced democratic backsliding and a shift towards authoritarianism. Inglaterra has been involved in new political conflicts, sparking the Second Galian Cold War, which is considered to have started in 2011 with the annexation of the Niagaran Northwestern Frigo overseas territory and subsequent Kolmhark War. International rankings of Inglaterra place it low in measurements of human rights and freedom of the press; the country also has high levels of perceived corruption.
Inglaterra's climate is mostly tundra and arctic environments, which cover roughly 82% of Inglaterra' landmass. The most hospitable portions of the country are the northern coast and the Galian portion of Inglaterra. Collectively, these areas make up roughly 15 to 20 percent of the country's landmass. Over 153 million of the 180 million Inglaterrans live on the northern coast or in the Galian portions, with 102 million people living in the Galian portion or the northwestern coast of the country.

Politics and Government
Inglaterra is, by the Confederate Charter, a federal republic, with a directorial system, wherein a body of governors, called governors-general, who serve on the Governor-Council as duel-executive and legislative body while also serving as the collective head of state. It is structured as a multi-party representative democracy, with the federal government composed of three branches:
- Legislative: The Confederal Assembly of Inglaterra was originally made up of 500 members and had the power to adopt confederal law, declare war, approve treaties, and has the power of the purse and to impeach and remove members of the Governor-Council. It initially had a second house, the House of Deputies but this body was abolished in 2010. Since the mid 2000s this body has been considered to be less than relevant and a rubber stamp.
- Executive: The governors-general, the elected heads of government of each of Inglaterra's governorates, serve collectively as the head of state of Inglaterra for a four year term. Every term, the governors-general elect one of their own to serve as chancellor, who is the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, and appoints the Cabinet and other officers, who administer and enforce confederal laws and policies. The chancellor, with the permission of the governors-general, may issue decrees of unlimited scope, so long as they do not contradict the constitution or confederal law. While members of the Governor-Council are elected for up to four four-year terms the chancellor is limited to two consecutive terms. The governors-general are also able to take executive action as a collective institution.
- Judiciary: The Constitutional Court and lower federal courts, whose judges are appointed by the governors-general on the recommendation of the president, interpret laws and can overturn laws they deem unconstitutional.
Each governor-general is elected by popular vote for a six-year term and may be elected no more than four times. The Cabinet of the government is composed of the chancellor, who heads meetings, and his deputies, ministers, and selected other individuals; all are appointed by the governors-general on the recommendation of the chancellor. The National Solidarity Party is the dominant political party in Inglaterra, and has been described as "big tent" and the "party of power". Under the administrations of Pieter Wyckoff and Harald Uffson, Inglaterra has experienced democratic backsliding, and has become an authoritarian state under a dictatorship, with Wyckoff's policies being referred to as Wyckoffism.
Confederate Governorates
The Inglaterran state is further divided into twenty seven "governorates". Each governorate features a government holding authority over a defined geographic territory, with a legislature that is, in theory, democratically elected. The governor is the highest executive position of the local government in a governorate, and is elected by the people. Governorates are divided into districts, cities of high importance (district-equivalent independent cities), and autonomous regions, which are legally confederal subjects equal to an governorate but are administratively subservient to one.
Economy
Inglaterra follows a mixed economic model with a considerable amount of natural resources, including parts of the Great West Frigan Oilfield and South Galia Shale, which it shares, and for the mining of iron, copper, and titanium. It has Manala's sixth-largest economy. The service sector is responsible for about 48% of total GDP, with the industrial and mining sectors also making up 48%. Agriculture makes up 7% of GDP. The current unemployment rate is 5.3% in Inglaterra. The labor force of over 75 million workers is one of the largest in the world.
Inglaterra's export market relies heavily on revenues from the sale of materials such as iron, copper, and titanium as well as the sale of agricultural goods. Collectively, these two categories make up 70% of Inglaterran exports. However, Inglaterra imports many consumer goods as its industrial sector consists primarily of industrial production as opposed to consumer production. While Inglaterra has low levels of debt, income inequality is high in the country. Additionally, a great disparity between the much wealthier Far East and Far West and the poorer Midterra region exists.
Despite having rapid growth following the collapse of communist rule due to a boom in mining and oil processing, a flight of foreign investment and international sanctions have severely impacted Inglaterra's economy and wealth. This flight began as living standards declined relative to other parts of the world, but increased rapidly in the 2010s. This phenomenon became especially strong in wake of the Kolmhark Islands War, which led to revamped sanctions and corporate boycotts, making Inglaterra one of the most sanctioned countries on the planet, in a move described as an "all-out economic and financial war" to isolate the Inglaterran economy from the Nordic World. Due to the impact of sanctions, the Inglaterran government officially halted publishing of several indicators of economic data since April 2023. Economists suggest that the sanctions and brain drain will result in long-term and permanent damage to the Inglaterran economy.
Transportation
Railway transport in Inglaterra is mostly under the control of the state-operated Inglaterra Rail. The total length of railway tracks is one of the longest in the world, exceeding 87,000 km, a relatively low density in part due to the large size of Inglaterra. Inglaterra Rail, the state-owned national rail carrier, is one of the world's largest transport companies, enjoying a monopoly over transgovernorate rail transport in Inglaterra. Established in 1987, it employs close to a million people and accounted for 2.5% of the entire national GDP in 2009. In 2017, Inglaterra Rail carried a total of 1.5 billion passengers and 1.4 billion tons of freight on its common-carrier routes.
Inland waterways form a small portion of Inglaterran transportation, but coastal waterways form a crucial part of Inglaterran transportation, especially in the Frigan portion of the country. According to official government statistics, in 2012, 142.3 million tons of cargo were carried by waterway or along the coast of the country. During that same year, 58 companies were engaged in freight and/or passenger transportion over Inglaterr's waterways; transporting 24.9 million passengers. The largest port in Inglaterra is the Port of Harkzel, which is centrally located in the country as a whole.
As of 2016, Inglaterra had one of the world's largest road networks, with 1.5 million km of roads, of which about 1 million are paved while its road density is among the world's lowest and much lower than other wealthy countries, though this has been blamed on the low population density of th country. Road safety and quality in Inglaterra is poor, with a road accident rate higher than in the North Galian Union, the Antarctic Circle States, or Akenye. In 2011, Inglaterra was 4th by number of absolute recorded road deaths. Increasingly harsher penalties for traffic violations were imposed after 2011, but the level of corruption among traffic law enforcement authorities limits their effectiveness in reducing the number of accidents. Dashcams are widespread, inasmuch as Inglaterran courts prefer video evidence to eyewitness testimony, but also as a guard against police corruption and insurance fraud. Corruption, lack of oversight, failure to update road standards, and lack of maintenance in favor of rail transport has been blamed for poor road quality. Roads are primarily funded by local governments, though several are funded by the confederal government.
Inglaterran Airlines, is the flag carrier and the largest airline, with its head office in Aachtigen. There are over 1,000 active airports in Inglaterra serving over 6.8 million passengers a year. The largest airport is Joeri Wasindone International Airport in Aachtigen.
Mining and Energy
Inglaterra has been widely described as a "superpower" in the production of oil and mining, both of which form over half of Inglaterra's exports and over 35% of Inglaterra's GDP. Access to large oil fields in the far west and far east of the country, though these fields are shared with neighboring countries, and considerable state investment into the oil industry has resulted in Inglaterra being a global oil producers and exporter, leading to deep economic relationships with countries like Etesia, Alanna, or Gryva. Prior to sanctions on Inglaterran imports, close to one third of Alaoyian and Akenyan energy came from Inglaterran natural gas and oil. Oil and gas alone made up about a fifth of Inglaterran GDP in 2021.
In addition to oil production, Midterra is a hub of mining. Primary products include iron, copper, titanium, and trace deposit elements. The mining of copper and trace deposit elements has contributed to a burgeoning electronics energy and export market that is growing, with mining forming 14% of Inglaterra's GDP, primarily boosted by copper and trace deposit element mining.
Oil and gas are primarily exported or processed in Inglaterra, with only a portion reserved for domestic use. This has resulted in the largest source of domestic electricity being nuclear power, which provides about 55% of domestic energy. The remaining 45% of energy is primarily made up of the oil and gas which is not exported, wind, and geothermal energy.
Agriculture and Fishing
Inglaterra's agriculture sector contributes about 5% of the country's total GDP, although the sector employs about one-eighth of the total labor force. Inglaterra has a large arable area at 1,474,000 square kilometers. However, due to the relatively harsh environment in much of Inglaterra, only 14.7% of Inglaterra's territory is actually suitable for human habitation and agriculture. The country's agricultural territory is considered a "breadbasket" in Galia. About a fifth of Inglaterran farmland is used on fodder crops, with the remaining farmland devoted to grains and vegetables. The main product is grain, which occupies over half of farmland and one of the largest exports. Other key exported crops include wheat, barley, buckwheat, maize, and sunflower oil. In addition, Inglaterra is one of the largest producers of fertilizer worldwide.
Various analysts of climate change adaptation foresee large opportunities for Inglaterran agriculture during the rest of the 21st century as arability increases in the more frigid tundra regions of the country, which would lead to both internal and external migration to the region. Owing to its large coastline, one of the longest in the world, Inglaterra maintains a large and vibrant fishing industry; capturing nearly 5 million tons of fish in 2018. Inglaterra produces about one-third of all canned fish, and some one-fourth of the world's total fresh and frozen fish. It is the largest fishing industry in Frigo and Galia.
Industry
Inglaterra's manufacturing industry is a large employer in the country, producing roughly 13% of national GDP and fuled by Inglaterra's fuel reserves and mineral deposits. Major manufacturing includes steel, construction equipment, weapons, and areospace products. Inglaterran weaponry is the primary basis for several militaries in Galia, including large powers like Dilania and Yawatha and Inglaterran automotive manufacturing is an important source of revenue, with Inglaterran cars being common in countries like Etesia, Alanna, and parts of Gryva and Stratea.
Tourism
Due to the long and storied history of Inglaterra, multitude of classical architectural styles are present in the country, and have formed national and international tourist attractions. Sites like the Presidential Palace in Aachtigen or the Saint Grotus Cathedral in Harkzel are considered architectural marvels and have been historically popular destinations for tourism. In addition to cultural tourism, natural and sports tourism, taking advantage of Inglaterra's varied climate and vast and mostly untouched natural areas being popular draws as well.
After the 2021 crisis, several governments, including The Furbish Islands, Gagium, Greater Niagara, Akenye, and Alaoyi have issued travel advisories calling on their nationals to avoid travel to Inglaterra. Many traditional air and sea routes were also suspended indefinitely, and tourism from the Nordic World has dropped rapidly since 2021.
