Economy and Trade
Economy : Bartering Economy
Trade
Overview: Due to the youth of their new home and the size of their population Shamys creates very little economic surplus. This hampers their already minuscule market. On the flip side most of that surplus is captured by the central administration due to the Rizya tax. This surplus is then used to fund, among other things, trade expeditions and mercantile projects. This means that 99% percent of the trade that flows through Shamys is done via the Sakhia as they trade the goods they collect as tax revenue for foreign goods. Foreign goods they either use or trade back to the public.
Foreign Trade: There are currently no tariffs, taxes or restrictions on trade in Shamys, though it is expected that trade caravans give a customary gift to the Sakhia when passing through
Exports available: Since trade is so centralized, it is easy for a trader to find what goods Shamys can provide for cheap, just ask the Sakhia
->
Imports Demanded: Since trade is so centralized, it is easy for a trader to find what goods the Sakhia is looking to trade for, just ask. Veteran traders know that the Sakhia is known to purchase a wide variety of goods, especially if they are something the Madraaki have never seen before
-> Metal tools, weapons and armor -> Lumber -> Consumer luxuries, (toys, artisanal goods, jewellery, e.t.c) -> A premium will be paid for Amber and Slaves
