The City-state of Agape is the biggest wine producer in the country, having the most vineyards and making up 70% of all wine production in the nation. The City-state of New Rome and Mythologica are the other two producers of wine.
All three city-states celebrate the art of wine making by hosting a number of wine festivals and competitions through out the year to showcase this art. Liberalia on March 17th is a national holiday and one of the biggest events for this industry.
Other festivals such as Dionysia and Bacchanalia are celebrated by many city-states to celebrate the West Phoenician deities responsible for vineyards and wine. Aside from excess amounts of drinking and revelry during these festivals, a number of theatre plays are performed during this time as well as an increase in sexual prosmiciouity as a way to honour the wine deities.
