===Geology===
Chaukhira is an archipelago of 5 islands in the southern mouth of the [[Aab-e-Farus]]. The waters around the islands are called the al-Zelaq Straits.
The largest and most western island is called Chaukhira Maior (the small island off of it's northeastern coast is called Chaukhira Minor and is hardly referenced uniquely). The second largest, to the northeast is Taizerbo, the smallest to the extreme north east is Taoulga, coming back to the southwest is Ghat, and in the center of the island cluster is Akhdaran.
The islands are the remains of a land bridge that used to connect the southern two continental islands of [[Alshar]]. At the end of the last ice age when sea levels rose, the [[Aab-e-Farus]] overtopped the lower laying areas of the land bridge and only the islands of Chaukhira and those big islands to the south remain.
Because of this phenomenon, the geography that remains to form the island chain is hilly with low lying areas being built up by silty undercurrents coming from the [[Aab-e-Farus]]. This makes the northern coasts very fertile and verdant. The northern faces of the hilly landscape is also quite fertile as the Antarctic atmosphere pulls warm air out of the Aab-e-Farus]] extending the growing season and keeping it humid year round.
Over the past few thousand years of human settlement the nutrient rich silt has been spread throughout the islands, but the heavily rains in the monsoon season rapidly errode anything that is not secured by deep roots. As such much of the islands hillsides have been terraced for cultivation and rivers and streams have been the subject of extensive terraforming and human intervention.

The islands of Chaukhira are home to a myriad of small [[Navy of Burgundie|naval]] and [[Revenue Guard]] stations, and airstrips. While Chaukhira is a key component of [[La Garrote]] it became effectively cut off from the maritime world when the [[1982]] [[LON]] {{wpl|Law of the Sea}} passed the Economic Exclusion Zone provision, essentially codifying that marine traffic to and from Chaukhira must pass through the waters of other nations. Since that time there have been no instances of a restriction of the [[Freedom of the seas]] in the [[Aab-e-Farus]] or the al-Zelaq  Straits, but the [[Navy of Burgundie#Grand Eastern Command|Navy of Burgundie's Grand Eastern Command]] is postured for a break out of Chaukhira in the event of war. As such the largest naval base on the islands is primarily used as a transit port and not a permanent station for any of the commands largest and most valuable ships. It has no large scale drydock facilities and berthed ships are never allowed to fully turn off their engines and systems. As such, it is one of the most hated billets or transit points for sailors because liberty is always limited on scope and duration.

Since [[2003]], the drug trade, especially the opium trade has become a major issue in Chaukhira when the [[Alainfisal#Drug_trade|Alainfisali Kishahurav network]] expanded onto the islands. The [[Revenue_Guard#Organization|Revenue Guard's Grand Station of the Orient]] has increased patrols, monitoring, and personnel on the islands. The issue has also sparked a public health emergency which was called into effect in [[2004]] and remains in effect today.

There are five sectors that encompass economic activity in Chaukhira: the processing industry, mining, agriculture, construction, and large and retail trade, and economic growth is also supported by tourism.

===Employment===
The agricultural sector is the cornerstone of employment in Chaukhira compared to other sectors with absorption reaching 1.9 million people. In addition to the agricultural sector, the other two sectors also absorb labor, namely the large and retail trade sector, car and motorcycle repair, and the processing industry. In the trade sector, there are 688,000 workers, and the processing industry reaches 279,300 people.

[[Burgundie]]'s high emphasis on [[Culture_in_Burgundie#Education|education]] translates to a particularly educated and skilled workforce, leading to lower unemployment compared to less educated countries in [[Audonia]]. The islands' economic diversity cushions against overreliance on any single industry, which has demonstrably made the island more resilient during downturns. Since [[Burgundie]] strives for [[Total Economic Engagement]] and espouses equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, ability, or background, Chaukhira benefits from improved access to education and training, impacting employment prospects across various fields.
 
===Agriculture===
The agricultural sector is the backbone of the economy in Chaukhira harvesting rubber, oil palm, and coffee, tea, and vegetables across 74 thousand hectares of arable land. The potential of agricultural resources is quite prominent with an annual production of rice reaching 420 thousand tons, corn production reaching 28.9 thousand tons, soybeans production reaching 1.6 thousand tons, palm oil production reaching 271.8 thousand tons, coffee (dry beans) production reaching 13.52 thousand tons, coconut production reaching 6.5 thousand tons.

Chaukhira uses [[Track gauges around the world|Standard gauge]], 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) for both freight and passenger rail.
 
[[Rail_transportation_in_Burgundie#Istroyan_Rail|Istroyan Rail]]- Istroyan Rail ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Istroie Ferroviaire''), is the public-private joint-venture, intercity, passenger rail operator in [[Torlen]], [[Antilles]], [[Alcairet]], and [[Chaukhira]]. It owns and operates all rail corridors, {{wp|rights of way}}, and rolling stock that serve this purpose.

====Phone service and internet====
Phone service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Vintage Wireless, and National Wireless Services]], which have 47, 27, and 15 towers respectively across the island. 100% of the island and its population are covered by at least one of the services, National Wireless Services covering the less densely populated and therefore less profitable areas. Copperwire and fiberoptic phone still exists, one or both are required for all municipal and emergency response connections, and people along the route are allowed to buy in, but during emergencies their calls are de-prioritized in favor of emergency response calls, which is the same with mobile service on the island.


====Military presence and installations====
Highspeed internet service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Vintage Wireless, and Extron Burgundie Mobile]]. Residential internet speeds average 2-3 gigabits while commercial speeds are typically higher in the 3-4 gigabit range.
