Despite these advances in energy and the depletion of oil and gas reserves in the commonwealth, the petroleum industry still dominates the energy sector of Teschego's economy. Until 2029, Teschego was the largest producer of petroleum in Tierrador, now it being second, but by a very close margin. The commonwealth’s refineries are able to process 4.5 million barrels of oil per day, about 31% of Tierrador’s oil yield. The [[Cape Sudmoll Refinery]] off the commonwealth’s eastern coast is the largest refinery in Tierrador. Teschego is also home to 120 trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves, the most in Tierrador. Many energy companies are based in Teschego, including [[TescheCo]], [[Polynesian Energy|POLY Energy]], [[Sudmoll Refining]], and [[Natukala]]. | Despite these advances in energy and the depletion of oil and gas reserves in the commonwealth, the petroleum industry still dominates the energy sector of Teschego's economy.

===Agriculture and | ===Agriculture, fishing, and mining=== | ||
Much like the rest of Tierrador, Teschego’s agriculture and mining industries are very important to the commonwealth’s GDP. The commonwealth has the 10th-most farms in the country, and has the 6th most acreage. Teschego’s agriculture industry is mainly focused on livestock, of which it represents $5 billion worth, or half of the commonwealth’s agriculture sector. This number mostly consisted of sheep, as their wool was one of Teschego’s largest exports for most of the 20th century. The rest of Teschego’s agricultural yields include Polynesian timber, which represents $2.1 billion worth, Polynesian fruits such as [[w:Guava|guava]], [[w:Mango|mangoes]], [[w:Papaya|papayas]], [[w:Pineapple|pineapples]], and [[w:Coconut|coconuts]], and dairy products, which represent $1.1 billion worth. Teschego also has a very strong fishing industry. The commonwealth has seen a massive abundance of seafood, and has several large fisheries along its Polynesian Sea coast. Teschego exports large numbers of salmon, crab, cod, shrimp, and tuna, and the fishing industry in the commonwealth accounts for 18% of its GDP. | Much like the rest of Tierrador, Teschego’s agriculture and mining industries are very important to the commonwealth’s GDP.

Tourism also plays a large role in Teschego's economy. Some notable tourist destinations include old cities such as Tataía, Apin Tasčaí, Ashburn, and Atalokaliq, along with the famous [[Obrina Island]], which is located 90 miles from the mainland. There are also numerous ski resorts scattered across the Tula'au o Tina mountains, which are very popular during the winter months, along with the various lush beaches along its eastern coast, which are popular in the summer months. 21% of Teschego's workforce is employed in tourism, and the commonwealth attracts more than 8 million visitors per year, mostly from mainland Tierrador but also from countries like Timbia, Daxia, [[Alstin]], [[Arcerion]], and [[Urcea]]. | |||
