The capital will have various offices for the functioning of the administration whereas the country side will have a large number of people growing crops. The coastal area will have people engaged in fishing, while in hilly terrain, there will be people involved in tourism and mountaineering occupations. On the other hand, Mines would be dug in the areas rich in mineral deposits. Similarly, in plains it can be seen that factories mushroom around the area where raw material is grown as cash crop.
