Economically Equitorial Ostecia is led by its logistics/operations management. It also boasts a large manufacturing sector but this is largely automated so it does not account for a large portion of employment. Retail and the public sector follow manufacturing as economic drivers, they tend to be lower paying but they employ millions of Equitorioise. There is a niche agricultural sector that mostly focuses on cash crops like tea, coffee, sugarcane, cotton, and citrus. There is an even smaller livestock element of the economy with cattle and chickens being the two most commonly raised animals. | Economically Equitorial Ostecia is led by its logistics/operations management.

Equatorial Ostiecia has been a part of [[History of Burgundie]] from at least the early 1600s and after the collapse of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] in [[Audonia]] most of the [[Levantia|Levantine]] protestants who made up those [[Pharisedom]]s relocated to Equatorial Ostiecia. From that point onward Equatorial Ostiecia has been considered a core part of [[Burgundie]] itself. | Equatorial Ostiecia has been a part of [[History of Burgundie]] from at least the early 1600s and after the collapse of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] in [[Audonia]] most of the [[Levantia|Levantine]] protestants who made up those [[Pharisedom]]s relocated to Equatorial Ostiecia.

Equatorial Ostiecia's strategic location in the [[STM Brendan's Strait]] at the crossroads of major shipping routes in the [[Orxital Ocean]], the [[Tainean Sea]], the [[Polynesian Sea]], the [[Odoneru Ocean]], and as part of the [[Sarpo-Audonian trade interface]], coupled with its historical emphasis on maritime trade and its early adoption of cutting-edge logistics technologies, has propelled its logistics, {{wp|transshipment}}, and maritime trade sector to the forefront of the nation's economy. This sector, which accounts for over 40% of the GDP, serves as the lifeblood of the economy. The sector's success is underpinned by a robust infrastructure network, encompassing modern ports, extensive road and rail networks, state-of-the-art air cargo facilities, and an {{wp|Calvinist}} entrepreneurial and risk accepting spirit. The Port of Monteneri, a bustling hub of activity, is one of the largest and most technologically advanced ports in the region, capable of handling the world's largest container ships and bulk carriers. Its automated cargo handling systems, real-time tracking capabilities, and seamless integration with inland transportation networks ensure the swift and efficient movement of goods, minimizing turnaround times and maximizing productivity. Equatorial Ostiecia's early investment in containerization infrastructure, coupled with its pioneering adoption of port automation technologies, has given it a significant competitive advantage in the global logistics landscape. The country's ports are equipped with state-of-the-art {{wp|gantry cranes}}, {{wp|automated guided vehicles}} (AGVs), and advanced {{wp|terminal operating systems}} (TOS), enabling them to handle vast volumes of cargo with unparalleled efficiency. This technological edge has attracted major shipping lines and logistics providers, further solidifying Equatorial Ostiecia's position as a global transshipment hub. The sector's success is also attributed to the country's data-centric approach to logistics management. Advanced data analytics, predictive algorithms, and artificial intelligence are leveraged to optimize supply chains, streamline operations, and enhance decision-making. This data-driven approach ensures that goods are delivered to their destinations in the most efficient and cost-effective manner, minimizing delays and reducing waste and is a cornerstone of the whole infrastructure of the countries logistics supply chain. Since the early 1990s countries have also been allowed to open customs and inspection nodes in Equatorial Ostiecia to conduct {{wp|douane}} and pre-screening of cargo destined for their country which was allowed for even more efficiency when offloading in their designation. Equatorial Ostiecia's logistics, transshipment, and maritime trade sector is a vital engine of economic growth, providing employment opportunities for a wide range of skilled workers, from port operators, and logistics managers to truck drivers, {{wp|stevedores}}, and warehouse staff. The sector's success has also spurred the growth of ancillary industries, such as freight forwarding, customs brokerage, and maritime insurance, further contributing to the nation's economic diversification and resilience. | |||

[[Rail_transportation_in_Burgundie#Equatorial_Express|Equatorial Express]]- The Equatorial Express ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Express Equatorial'') is the public sector, intercity, passenger rail operator in Equatorial Ostiecia, [[Port de Vent]], and [[Sudmoll]]. It owns and operates all rail corridors, {{wp|rights of way}}, and rolling stock that serve this purpose. | [[Rail_transportation_in_Burgundie#Equatorial_Express|Equatorial Express]]- The Equatorial Express ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Express Equatorial'') is the public sector, intercity, passenger rail operator in Equatorial Ostiecia, [[Port de Vent]], and [[Sudmoll]].

Every city over 500,000 people always it's own Transit authority that includes light rail, a subway, or a combination as well as a bus system. Many smaller cities also have light rail systems as well. | |||
====Roads==== | ====Roads==== | ||
Because of the hyper-urbanized environment and the plethora of public transit options, as well as a strong network of intercity and highspeed rail, car ownership is at about 57%. Equatorial Ostiecia has 741,584km of roads, 548,739km are improved. There are 4 levels of road ownership types in Equatorial Ostiecia: | |||
*Military priority highways: large, intercity multi lane, controlled access roads. These roads are prioritized for the use of military and government assets during a state of emergency. When not in a state of emergency anyone can use them, but they are tolled fairly heavily as they are the most direct and highest speed limit roads. They are regulated and maintained by the Department of Transportation of Equatorial Ostiecia. | |||
*Federal truck routes: large, intercity multi lane, controlled access roads. Designed in the 1970s to relieve traffic during [[Operation Kipling]]. Many of these roads used to be Military Priority Roads but we're relegated to civilian administration. Anyone can used these roads but it is designed to keep trucks off of smaller roads in favor of personal vehicles. They are regulated by the [[Burgoignesc Security Forces|Defense-Wide Joint Defense Activities Command]] and maintained by the Department of Transportation of Equatorial Ostiecia. | |||
*Provincial highways: Provincial highways are regulated by provincial Departments of Transportation. They may be controlled access or not controlled access. | |||
*Otherwise regulated routes | |||
Most of the improved roads are long haul routes connecting the sparse settlements. Almost all roads are owned and maintained by the provincial transit authority The Transportation Authority of Argaea ([[Burgoignesc clanguage|Burg]]:''Authoritat de Transportacion de Argaea (ATA)''), with the exception of the roads within Le Havre which has its own transportation authority who maintain the roads within the city limits of Le Havre. There is an inter-community bus system, also operated by the ATA that, in the summer, connects the disparate communities to Le Havre. In the winter, road buses are replaced by off-road buses and the frequency is cut dramatically. | |||

Equatorial Ostiecia's power is mostly generated by nuclear power and fossil fuels (43% and 27%). The remaining 30% of energy is made up of renewables, mostly solar and tidal. {{wp|Agrivoltaics}} have been major investment area since [[2028]] as technologies advanced and studies proved that they not only produced energy but we're also beneficial to some plants. Since [[2012]] there has been a modularly growing project for a sea-based solar farm that has not increased to 24 total hectares across 4 project sites. As of [[2035]] these floating solar farms produce 47MW and there are plans and funding to increase the size and output to 76MW by [[2040]]. There are 9 waste to power plants across the archipelago as well that have been in operation starting in the 1990s. There are high capacity transmission lines between Equatorial Ostiecia and [[Arona]], [[Vespera]], and undersea transmission lines to [[Eilada]] and [[Porta Bianca]]. | |||
