Buddhism is the cornerstone of Tapakdore's religious make up, 46% of the population of the nation are its adherence. Its arrival in Tapakdore came through the conversion of Emperor Ashoka of the [[Arunid Empire]] in the 3rd century BCE. Mahayana Buddhism, emphasizing compassion and the potential for all beings to achieve enlightenment, is the dominant school of thought within the country. Buddhism is practiced by all ethnic groups but its ethnographic center is among the Tapakdi people. | |||
Sikhism constitutes a substantial 26.5% of Tapakdore's religious identity. Sikhism's emphasis on social justice, equality, and standing up for the oppressed likely resonated with the Pehsabi people who faced marginalization during the [[Oduniyyad Calphate]]. The presence of Sikh Gurus in their disciples in modern Tapakdore is attested to in the 16th or 17th centuries. Peshabi Sikhism was fostered by the [[Duchy of Martilles|Martillian]] colonizers of the [[Peshabiwar colony]] who wanted to ensure that there was no native common cause with the Buddhists in the [[Duchy of Bourgondi]]'s [[Pukhgundi colony]]. However, the establishment of Gurdwaras (Sikh places of worship) across the nation serves as a testament to the faith's enduring presence. The harmonious coexistence of Sikhism with Buddhism in modern Tapakdore is commonly attributed to shared values of compassion, ethical conduct, and a focus on achieving enlightenment. Sikhism is predominately practiced by the Peshabi and to a certain extent Kashmiri people. | |||
Hinduism is practiced by 12.5% of Tapakdore's population. The arrival of Hinduism is also a result of the country being a part of the [[Arunid Empire]]. The presence of Hindu temples and iconography in archaeological sites suggests a period of flourishing Hinduism within Tapakdore, perhaps as a rejection of the rise of Zoroastrian influences in the court practices of Buddhism starting in the 4th century CE. However, the court religion, ostensibly being Buddhism, and the influence of Jainism led to a decline in the prevalence of Hinduism over time, which was one of the largest religions outside of Islam in the region under the [[Oduniyyad Calphate]]. Nevertheless, Hinduism continues to hold significance for a dedicated segment of the population. Hinduism is strong in the southwest of the country where the populations are majority Kashmiri with some Peshabi people also practicing. | |||
Jainism constitutes 7.3% of the religious population. Jain philosophy, emphasizing strict vegetarianism, ethical conduct, and detachment from worldly possessions, may have attracted individuals seeking a more ascetic way of life, but never drew large numbers to its casue. Considered ''fringe'', ''fanatic'', and ''fundamentalist'' by most Tapakdoris, there a few communities along the southern border that are the strongholds of Jainism in Tapakdore. | |||
Christianity, in its various denominations, represents a minority of 5.2% within Tapakdore. Its arrival occurred during the colonial period and missionary activities in the 17th and 18th centuries. They are predominantly Protestant, [[Mercantile Reform Protestantism]] is the chief among them. The remaining 2.5% of the population either identify with other religions or do not subscribe to any particular faith. It is mostly practiced along the coast, particularly in the islands of [[Peshabiwar]]. | |||

However, one of the more contentious aspects of Tapakdore's economy has been the shipbreaking industry, which, until recently, operated with minimal oversight and safety regulations, posing significant risks to workers and the environment. Recognizing the need for reform, Tapakdore has begun collaborating with its regional partners to implement comprehensive safety measures and enforce stringent environmental standards, ensuring the sustainable development of the shipbreaking sector. | However, one of the more contentious aspects of Tapakdore's economy has been the shipbreaking industry, which, until recently, operated with minimal oversight and safety regulations, posing significant risks to workers and the environment.

Tea and sugar are the two primary agricultural products and exports of Tapakdore. Between the two of them, they employ almost 30% of the labor force and make up significant portions of the country's commodity market. | |||
The north coast and Lalgaria province have a tropical wet climate. Here, the prevailing easterly tradewinds sweep moisture from the [[Aab-e-Farus]], making the growing seaon yearround with abundant rainfall. The cultivation of {{wp|basmati rice}} is prevalent and it is a staple food across Tapakdore. Paddy fields dominate the landscape, with massive, publicly owned irrigation systems ensure a consistent water supply for this high-moisture crop, from which farmers draw their water and pay the municipality by the kiloliter. Beyond rice, massive plantations, remnants of the latifundia of the [[Burgoignesc colonial empire]], flourish with banana, coconut, pineapple, mangoes and sugar cane. Corporate rubber plantations are also common. In the interior, sorghum and millet grains are the staple of local diets with limited export marketability. Cotton is the primary cashcrop for export. Its largescale cultivation dates back to the [[Burgoignesc colonial empire]], particularly the [[Pashabiwar colony]]. Root vegetables like cassava and sweet potatoes are also cultivated for local consumption in the interior. | |||
In the Owidura and Mulwani provinces, situated in the extreme east and west of Tapakdore respectively, there are highland climates. Characterized by cooler temperatures and significant variations throughout the year, these regions require crops that can tolerate not only drier conditions but also cooler nights and potentially even frost at higher elevations. Here, temperate fruits like apples, pears, peaches and plums are cultivated. Vegetables like potatoes, cabbage, broccoli, and carrots are also grown in these areas. However, all of these crops pale in comparison to the scale of the tea estates. Tea, especially Darjeeling, is the primary cash crop and backbone of the economies of the areas in which they are cultivated. Tea estates employ either directly or indirectly most of the communities they touch. | |||

=====Shipbreaking===== | |||
[[File:Shipbreaking Yard Bhatiari, Sitakunda.jpg|250px|right]] | |||
Tapakdore's shipbreaking industry offers a significant source of raw materials and employment opportunities, but it has also been historically marred by safety concerns and environmental hazards. {{wp|Shipbreaking}}, the dismantling of aged, obsolete, or irreparable vessels that have reached the end of their operational lifespans. These ships are brought to Tapakdore, primarily from developed nations, where stricter environmental regulations and safety standards make the process costlier, to be disposed of. For Tapakdore, shipbreaking presents an attractive opportunity to acquire steel, a vital resource for its growing manufacturing sector. The recovered steel is reprocessed and utilized in various industries, from construction and automotive parts to appliances and machinery. This influx of steel contributes to Tapakdore's economic development and reduces its dependence on virgin ore imports. The shipbreaking industry in Tapakdore is heavily reliant on manual labor. Workers, often with limited safety gear and training, are tasked with the dangerous job of dismantling these ships. Works cut through layers of steel, remove asbestos and other hazardous materials, and extract usable components, all under precarious conditions. These challenging and risky jobs provide a reliable source of income for many, many of whom travel from the interior where jobs are scarce. | |||
Despite its economic benefits, the shipbreaking industry in Tapakdore has faced harsh criticism due to its lax safety standards and environmental impact. Prior to recent reforms, worker safety was also a primary concern. Accidents resulting in injuries and fatalities were frequent occurrences due to inadequate protective equipment, improper dismantling techniques, and exposure to toxic materials. The industry has been accused of polluting the environment through the improper disposal of hazardous waste like asbestos, oil spills, and toxic paints. These pollutants can contaminate nearby water bodies, soil, and air, posing a significant threat to human health and marine ecosystems. In recent years [[Burgundie]] and other nations in the [[Middle seas region]] have pressured the royal family of Tapakdore to improve safety standards and have provided finacial and technical aid to help clean up the ship breaking yards. | |||
======Major shipbreaking firms====== | |||
*Tapakdore Shipbreakers Limited (TSL): A state-owned enterprise, TSL is one of the largest shipbreaking firms in Tapakdore. It has made significant strides in implementing safety measures and adheres to international best practices. It is located in Gurugaria, Khagamiri province. | |||
*Mare Oceano Salvage and Recycling Company (MOSAR): A private company with a strong international presence, MOSAR focuses on acquiring larger vessels and utilizes advanced cutting technologies to expedite the dismantling process. It is located in Dumwani, and Mahidyar, in Khagamiri province. | |||
*Shyanghati Enterprises: A family-owned firm concentrated on smaller ships, Shyanghati Enterprises has built a reputation for efficiency and is actively involved in worker training initiatives. It is located in Ambejogai on the island of Chhaptial. | |||
*Eco-Break Inc.: A relatively new entrant in the industry, Eco-Break prioritizes environmentally friendly practices. They invest in recycling technologies and have adopted stricter hazardous waste disposal protocols. It is a joint [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]]-Tapakdori venture located in Batni, Balpatna province. | |||
*Global Recycling Consortium (GRC): A [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] owned, international consortium with a branch in Tapakdore, GRC brings extensive expertise and international standards to the shipbreaking process. They play a crucial role in knowledge sharing and advocating for sustainable practices within the industry. It is located in Kulhufunadhoo, Midai province. | |||
===Logging/Mineral extraction=== | |||
====Paper milling==== | |||
====Mining==== | |||
Tapakdore's modern mining industry revolves around aluminum extraction in Owidura province. Open-pit and underground mining methods are both used to extract bauxite ore, which is then processed into aluminum. The state-owned Tapakdore Aluminum Corporation (TAC) dominates this sector but faces pressure to minimize its environmental impact. Lumiere Gems, a private company with international ([[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]]) expertise, owns the last two profitable sapphire and ruby mines in the country. During the latter half of the [[Burgoignesc colonial empire|Burgoignesc colonial rule]] most of the rubies and sapphires were mined out of the country. | |||

=====Louage===== | =====Louage===== | ||
A '''louage''' is a minibus shared taxi in many parts of [[Daria]] that were [[Burgoignesc colonial empire|colonized]] by [[Burgundie]]. In [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]], the name means "rental." Departing only when filled with passengers not at specific times, they can be hired at stations. Louage ply set routes, and fares are set by the government. In contrast to other share taxis in [[Audonia]], louage are sparsely decorated. Louages use a color-coding system to show customers what type of transport they provide and the destination of the vehicle. Louages with red lettering travel from one state to another, blue travel from city to city within a state, and yellow serves rural locales. Fares are purchased from ticket agents who walk throughout the louage stations or stands.
