Commercial fishing, logging, and light manufacturing make up the core of the economy, with a large tourism and service sector supporting a powerful banking sector. The region is notable for its well-managed fisheries and many bays and inlets, which make it a popular summer retreat for boating and fishing enthusiasts, even from abroad.

Politics

Demographics
While not as heavily populated as Gleathan, Vrael is well-developed and more diverse than most of the country, having a significant Coscivian minority and a plurality of Sheafhainn. The area has a long-standing maritime tradition, even being referred to as 'Little Burgundie' during the height of its shipbuilding industry in the 1700s.
