The '''economy of [[Littland]]''' is a highly developed mixed social market economy.  
The '''economy of Littland''' is a {{wpl|developed country|developed}} {{wpl|mixed economy|mixed}} {{wpl|social market economy}} based in manufacturing and services that provide a high standard of living and quality of life. The economy is largely based on the {{wpl|service sector}} with almost 60% of all jobs being in service, manufacturing still plays a large role in the economy at 37% while under 3% belong to agricultural production. Littland uses its own currency, the [[Littish daler]]. The inequality of the country has been increasing over the past three decades after a considerable [[1991 Littish economic crisis|economic crisis in the early 1990's]]. This has been attributed to economic policies favoring exports and a lack of investments into {{wpl|Small and medium-sized enterprises|small and medium sized businesses}} by the government.  


==Currency==
[[Kaslund]] is the financial capital of Littland. The capital of significant economic hub and it is the primary city for business accounting for almost 30% of the national income in 2020.

The [[Port of Aalhavn]] processed 16.8 million tonnes cargo in 2016.
{{Main|Littish daler}}
The Littish currency is the [[Littish daler]], which is valued at 4.71 DAL to 1 USD. The currency is sometimes referred to as the ''Littish dollar'' in some countries.

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 1.8%. The currency inflation is at 3.06% as of 2021.
