The Cape has a {{wp|social market economy}} with a skilled labour force and a low level of corruption. It is among the most developed economies in [[Crona]], having experienced rapid GDP growth in the mid-1990s as a function of foreign investment following political reform. The nation’s GDP growth has now slowed to approximately 5% annually, with the country’s {{wp|tertiary sector}} now fuelling growth in comparison to its {{wp|primary sector|primary}} and {{wp|secondary sector}}s. The country’s {{wp|mixed economy}} has ranked highly in economic freedom since democratization and features an “above average” {{wp|household disposable income}} in the Eastern Hemisphere. The Cape is a party to a variety of free-trade and customs agreements, most prominently with [[Faneria]] and [[Kiravia]]. The [[Cape Town Stock Exchange]] is the largest in Crona by {{wp|market capitalization}}. | The Cape has a {{wp|social market economy}} with a skilled labour force and a low level of corruption.

Once directed by a variety of {{wp|state-owned enterprise}}s, the Capetian economy is now comprised of primarily private businesses and worker-owned {{wp|cooperative}}s - although the now-divested state-owned corporations continue to dominate the country’s primary and secondary sectors. Of these corporations, [[Cape Automotive Corporation]] and [[Natrol]], rank as the largest and most internationally prominent - leading the Cape’s sizeable automotive and natural resource exploitation industries. | Once directed by a variety of {{wp|state-owned enterprise}}s, the Capetian economy is now comprised of primarily private businesses and worker-owned {{wp|cooperative}}s - although the now-divested state-owned corporations continue to dominate the country’s primary and secondary sectors.

Personal transportation is dominated by the automobile, which operates on 1.9 million kms of public roadway. Of these kilometres, 4,126 of them are {{wp|controlled-access highways|controlled-access}}. These highways criss-cross the country in the form of the [[Cape National Highway]] system, supplanted by a variety of provincially operated “trails” and municipally maintained expressways. The Capetian highway system connects to [[Etzil]] through the second-longest {{wp|bridge-tunnel}} in the world, the [[Atl I-Kalma Fixed Link]]. | Personal transportation is dominated by the automobile, which operates on 1.9 million kms of public roadway.
