The economy of the Unified Governorates of Benacia is a mixed agrarian-industrial system that emphasised production for the purpose of meeting the needs of Benacia Command and the Black Legions for food, fuel, weaponry and munitions. To achieve this the consumer sector was deliberately suppressed outside of a few key cities, such as Merensk, and the service sector similarly curbed - confined to special projects such as the financial hub of Port Benacia.

History

Excluding the manpower drafted for the Black Legions, the primary split of the workforce by sector in 1685 AN was Primary (agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and livestock) 34%, Secondary (including construction, transport and communication) 48%, and Tertiary (including trade, finance, health, education, science and administration) 18%.

Currency

In common with most former Shirerithian Vulture States, the UGB adopted the Natopian natopo shortly after independence due to the collapse of the Shirerithian Erb. This helped stabilise the economy during the early years. However, in common with its southern Benacian counterpart Sanama, the UGB found its monetary policy being ultimately constrained by the Natopian control of the the money supply. Accordingly the Command Executive of Benacia Command resolved to adopt a new national currency. Beginning in 1682 the Natopian natopo was supplemented by the Benacian Sovereign as the official, government issued, currency of the UGB.
