The Tryhstian Littoral has remained true to its mercantile heritage: From the establishment of the first Tryhstian communities as trading posts along the southern coasts to the reëmergence of São Tristão and Aumém as major ports after the fall of [[Kirosocialism]], shipping and commerce have long been the mainstay of the Tryhstian economy, taking advantage of Tryhstia's position on the Sea of Odoneru, which connects [[Ixnay]]'s largest economic engines. The more developed Tryhstian cities are significant ports of entry for goods imported from [[Heku]], [[Urcea]], [[Insui]], [[Pelaxia]], and the other nations of [[Ixnay Proper]].

Because the Tryhstian exclaves offer a radically more pro-business political, fiscal, and regulatory climate than most of the Kiravian states that they adjoin ([[Issyria]] and [[Andrēdan]] are ''de facto'' single-party states dominated by traditionalist, agrarian, and quasi-feudal aristocratic interests), Tryhstian cities have come to serve as major financial, transport, high-end retail, and distribution hubs for vast areas of the Kiravian South. The generally hands-off approach to Tryhstian internal affairs adopted by the federal government after the Compact of St. Lugo has allowed the territory to market itself as a {{wp|tax haven}} for foreign and multinational corporations, and a convenient tax shelter for {{wp|re-exports}}. Tryhstia's mild climate (compared to most of Great Kirav), Romance-speaking population, Gregorian civil calendar, and general European flavour have made it an extremely attractive place for investors and entrepreneurs from [[Occidental world|Western countries]] to do business and establish "beachheads" in the Kiravian market.
