Slave Country: MLF The Kingdom of Bandara
Main Country: MLF Militarized Laissez Faire


I am relatively new to the game although I haven't played in awhile, but I am having serious problems with my economy. I took over another country but about a day after my economy collapsed in my main country, however the country I took over is making 3.53Billion in profit and doing fine, however my main countries economy has been unstable and has gone down before to 300Million in profit and then it shoot back up to 2billion in one month and now is down to -1billion profit after being stabilized for 4-5months. I'm not sure what I've been doing wrong, I tried raising my ss rates previously set to minimum values and I have education, transportation, and health rates set a good values. I've been also building a lot of corps, I tried getting rid of 3 this month and im not sure if that will effect my country but I was lacking workers to work in corps, hiring and production were low I have 45 corps now. If you can please help me I would highly appreciate. Finally I am highly confused on trade/market, I tried making everything and trading between my two countries and making contracts between state corporations, im not sure what the different types of corps mean, national, state and private.

95% of your problem is your employment situation. You don't have enough workers for all of your corporations. Check your employment page and compare available workers vs number needed for 100% production. For example you have 45,000 LLWs available but you need 2.1 million for full production. Keep closing corporations until you have enough workers for 100% production.

Or, you can go to your employment page and use "exchange professionals" to take some workers from your slave country to get the workers that you need.

You can take 200,000 people per month from your slave. If you go that route, suck all of the people out of the slave that you can (close all corporations and stop building new ones) and drop the slave country. You can always take another slave country later.

I am slightly worried about your economy as an healthy economy should be 20 B and above. Perhaps you should try to attract as much CEOS to open business in your countries. I know this is because when my profit goes below 20 B which I am currently there is a problem with the countrie's structure of economics.

Really profit of 20B, there must be something im doing wrong, is there anything that I am doing wrong. my health, transportation, and education indexes close to 120, I have 40corps now. Decreased amount by 7corps. I am not sure what you mean when you say CEOS? Im not really understanding the difference between private, state and national corps.

Ok private corps are owned by CEO's (other players) abd the benefit for a country with that is it costs the country less to have it because the CEO pays for the resources for the company and the country just gets paid for having it there. Also helps housewives and disabled citizens back into the workforce. State and national are both owned by the country, national cannot be bought by other players if im not mistaken, and thats about the only difference too. Its a way to protect certain corps you want to keep control of

my profit is now 4.2Billion and seems to be rising, I raised salaries for my corporations and I've been stealing population from my slave, also I changed the sell strategies for my state corps, this seems to be working.

As you improve your employment your profit will rise. At some point you may need to evaluate your corporations and close ones that are underperforming.

Not all industries are created equal.

The best way is through the forums, go to the section in the forums for your world and advertise your country, ask them to buy some corps that you already have, or offer them to build new ones as you close them down.

When it comes to your cash vanishing check your Cash YTD and Cash Log under finance. If you see cash in Automatic Cash Transfers under Cash YTD your country is putting money into your corporations, even if your corporations are profitable your country still will put more money in them when they buy supplies in bulk. Unless you have little to no profit transfer or tax. Which is where your country will take money out of the corporations when they get to their money supply cap. Another reason is that your country is buying product off the world market for consumption. Which the population pays back monthly -government and military products.
