Economy
Economic growth since 2008 has maintained a steady growth contributing to the nation's high index of human development and high income mixed economy. In 2018, the GDP (PPP) is of ₺ 11.865 trillion with a GDP per capita (PPP) of ₺ 503,883. Ravetia is considered a middle income economy with a current recorded economic growth of 3.5%.
In 1968, Ravetia suffered a severe economic crisis mostly due to the lack of modern infrastructure and increasingly expensive manufacturing costs. The Economic Modernisation Act of 1971 introduced some emergency economic stability measures, which lead to the outsourcing of a grand majority of the Ravetian manufacturing base to Nameria and the sell of several state-owned enterprises. Other incentives were implemented, such as the introduction of semi-computerised automation, economic subsidies for STEM related studies and a revitalisation of the national infrastructure. Despite some successful results, Ravetia was left with a rather extensive public deficit that has only been decreased within the last decade.
Results of the extensive economic restructuring resulted fruitful by the early 1990s. Ravetia boasted a healthy, but much reduced manufacturing based, a modernised agricultural base and an ever increasing services base. The years from 1989 to 1996 had the highest reported economic growth percentage and a low unemployment rate. 1994 was the year with the highest economic growth, with a reported 9%, according to the Directory of Economy.
