Chakailan has a very small economy, and its people are considered among the poorest in the world. The primary sectors are subsistence agriculture and nomadic pastoral herding. The economy of Chakailan is such that its government is not sufficiently strong enough or have enough credit to issue a currency. In the more remote parts of the country, barter is the primary form of exchange, but the government uses [[Cronan lira]] as its de facto currency for internal and external transactions. Chakailan is very under-urbanized, with a large, central city only presently under construction as a project of the new state - T'laa'nah, which means "liberty", - which also serves as the nation's capital. Few transportation networks or systems allow travel throughout the country, with a highway and rail network system emanating out of the city of T'laa'nah, which is under construction.

Chakailan's military only has one branch - the Republican Guard of Chakailan, which serves the basic functions of both an army and an air force. Within the national defense scheme, it is intended that Chakailan's primary main manpower and defensive capabilities be provided by tribal militias and volunteer forces. The RGC is intended to supplement these forces with a relatively small contingent of regular professional soldiers - a single {{wp|Battalion|battalion}} of 524 personnel as of 2029 - as well as air and logistical support along with maintenance and operation of artillery. Accordingly, in addition to its infantry battalion, the RGC maintains four {{wp|Artillery_battery#NATO|batteries}} of artillery. The air component of the RGC includes a number of transport vehicles as well as five mixed-role jet fighters.
In terms of military outlook, Chakailan is heavily reliant upon [[Kiravia]] to provide for its national defense despite having no formal agreement between the two nations. With [[Varshan]] occupied by the [[League of Nations]], many of Chakailan's threats are assumed to be internal or non state-actors, and accordingly the military remains largely garrisoned in and around the emerging city of T'laa'nah.
