==History==
==History==
Historically Littland was an agrarian society for a majority of it's history, even through the industrial revolution with only minor industry appearing in major cities. Littland underwent rapid industrialization following the end of the [[Littish Civil War]] in 1913. Part of reconstruction was the investment into heavy industries such as mining, steel and machinery production among others. The agricultural sector was also modernized and fertilizer, tractors and other equipment was imported during the next couple decades.
Historically Littland was an agrarian society for a majority of it's history.
 
After the [[First Argic War]] the importance of heavy industry declined. Agricultural output had also declined since the end of the 1940's as more and more people were moving into the cities. As the industrial and agricultural sectors declined a thriving service sector had appeared which started expanding rapidly to satisfy the demands of the new urban population, companies such as [[Guldbrand Group|Guldbrand]], [[Summarum]], [[Rislev Foods|Rislev]], [[Telemax]] and [[NordSoft]] were founded during this era of economic growth. Nowadays, building on long-standing traditions and a highly skilled labor force, main industries of Littland include: {{wpl|Iron}} and {{wpl|Steel}} production, {{wpl|Electronics}} and {{wpl|Machinery}}, {{wpl|Food Processing}} and {{wpl|Pharmaceuticals}}.
 
Following the 1991 Economic Crash, Littland economy became more of less completely stagnant, with GDP growth from 1991 to 2006 being only 1.4%. Government austerity measures did not help the already strained economy and in 2005 unemployment figures were up to 16.2%, a record high. After the [[2008 Littish parliamentary elections|2008 election]] the [[Christian Democratic League]] won a great victory thanks to their "New Littish Business" (Nyt Littisk Erhverv) economic program, often called "NLE" for short. The NLE included a reform to the labor market, taxes, business permits, state pensions and several new trade initiatives with other countries. While reaction were mixed on its implementation and controversies arose on the state pension reform, it is generally viewed as a success and by 2015 the Littish economy were once again growing, although still slower than before the economic crisis.

Inflation has been fluctuating the past few decades, reaching its peak in 2003. The central bank, [[Littlands Nationalbank]], has since then begun to relax certain rules on currency controls although the currency is not widely used internationally. Government intervention has also helped curb the inflation, which now sits at 3.6% and stagnant.
