Canpei's automotive industry has long focused on the production of trucks of various types, so as to not compete with [[Daxia]]n carmaking firms which are deeply entrenched and have much greater resources. This specialization has allowed Canpei's niche truck companies to grow and prosper in the [[Daxia]]n market by offering sturdy 6x4 diesel trucks used to haul goods, refuse trucks, concrete mixers and dump trucks among other types. Canpei has defended its internal trucking market by slapping anti-dumping tariffs on foreign vehicles, especially from [[Metzetta]]n firms. The automotive sector employs over 400,000 people as of 2030. | Canpei's automotive industry has long focused on the production of trucks of various types, so as to not compete with [[Daxia]]n carmaking firms which are deeply entrenched and have much greater resources.

Another significant employer is the footwear industry, it employs some 150,000 people as of 2030. Canpei produces roughly forty million pairs of footwear between formal shoes, tennis, sandals and slippers. As the demand for sustainable footwear continues to increase worldwide, Canpei is a leading nation in coming up with innovative eco-friendly materials and green shoe production methods. Canpei is also a producer of socks which complements well with its textiles and shoewear production chains, sock market value growth was 0.68% in 2030. | Another significant employer is the footwear industry, it employs some 150,000 people as of 2030.

Canpei is a net importer of energy at present. Most of its domestic energy production comes from wind generators, which Canpei's flat geography is especially well suited for. Wing energy fulfills at present 35% of the country's domestic energy needs, with enough power generating capacity being planned to come online in the next fifteen years to take that percentage up to 45%. Canpei also has some older coal powered power plants which consume [[Daxia]]n coal, at present they represent some 12% of the country's energy. The rest of the energy is bought from [[Daxia]], which supplies it mostly from the excess power generated by its nuclear power plants. [[Daxia]]n supplied electricity is not cheap, but on this regard Canpei does not have many options other than expanding its wind farms. Canpei does not possess significant oil or gas deposits nor does it have the technical capability to employ nuclear energy, neither do its policymakers wish to rely on coal due to policy goals to employ greener energies. | Canpei is a net importer of energy at present.

Canpei is a historical agricultural producer of some importance thanks to the irrigation along the banks of the Hongse river that traverses the country from north to south. As recently as 2000, agriculture supplied 60 percent of employment. In 2020, agriculture and forestry contributed 11.4 percent to the GDP; in rural areas, farm jobs supply about half of employment. Canpei's agricultural exports are successful in foreign markets and the country's farmers have been noted for best practices and sustainable farming. Rice is the most important crop in the country and some 40% of land used for agriculture goes to the planting of rice alone. Tapioca, sugarcane, pineapples, palm oil, bananas and mangos are also crops that are popular with Canpei's growers. | Canpei is a historical agricultural producer of some importance thanks to the irrigation along the banks of the Hongse river that traverses the country from north to south.

Canpei has designated 15% of its land for the timber industry and another 25% as protected forests. Forests have been set aside for both conservation and recreation, and timber forests are available for the forestry industry. Between 1992 and 2010, exports of logs and sawn timber increased from 50,000 to 2,000,000 cubic meters per year. | ||

The Canpei Self Defense Force (CSDF) is responsible for maintaining the country's international borders secure, providing relief in cases of dire natural disasters and aiding in internal order tasks on request of the President. The CSDF is has two components: the Land Forces and the Air Force, there is no navy as Canpei has no access to the ocean, the Land Forces do keep a maritime capacity to operate on the Hongse river. As of 2034 there are 150,000 active personnel in the Land Forces and 8,000 personnel in the Air Force. The CSDF maintains universal conscription of males and females starting at the age of 18, mandatory military service lasts for two years, or three years in case of civic equivalence. | |||
Canpei is committed to the principle of international neutrality in all conflicts and it is constitutionally prohibited for its armed forces to be deployed abroad, even should there exist a mandate by the [[League of Nations]]. Canpei even declined a request by [[Daxia]] to provide troops for its contingent fighting in [[Varshan]] during [[the Deluge]]. Canpei does maintain military to military relations with [[Daxia]], the two nations hold joint military exercises on an annual basis and much of the CSDF's equipment is procured with [[Daxia]]n companies like [[Diaoyu]]. | |||
